Default 16" Ford Wheels
Hey Guys,

As I will be getting some 17" wheels on my new Fez, how much do you reckon I could sell my 16" wheels for?

Yeah, why not, I'll let you know when I've bought my new wheels. If you're still in the market, we'll make a deal!

Cheers mate!

I'm in the same boat Sway, Iv'e got new wheels for my Zetec and will be looking to sell the Ford 7 Spokes, how much do ya reckon they're worth?
Also remember you will need to keep 4 of the wheel nuts to suit ya "space saver spare", I didn't think about it initially until the tyre guy where I bought my new wheels said about it, apparantly if ya use the new nuts that come with ya new wheels on the space saver he reckons it will "wreck/crush" it.
Dont know if this is right, I was going to check out how much a set of 4 standard nuts are at Ford and buy some for the spare just in case he's right.

depends on what type of nut the new ones are, I've never seen any problems in 16 years of playing with tyres.

HAHAHA.... and I thought I was the only one who got shafted by those morons. New wheels were put onto our old EL, they scratched them the day they fitted them.
