Default 18's on 09 fiesta

Hey guys im looking to get either some 18's or 17's on my new fiesta. Only thing i was a bit iffy about was somewhere i heard that you need to get a steering rack limiter. If this is true anyone got info on price and if i should go with ford to get it fitted.

Thanks

I spoke with my local dealer about fitting 17s to the WS Fiesta, in their experience they suggest the rack limiter may not be necessary, there was rubbing of the guards or anything despite this being a mandatory option if you fit 17s. 18s may be different story though.
