Like the thread title says, will current model Fiesta wheels fit the Ka? I want to upgrade the GF's wheels to something larger and was hoping the Fiesta's 15 inch steelies and low profile tyres would do the trick.
Thanks in advance, Mike

They should have the same 4x108 stud pattern.

Stud pattern is fine but the Fiesta runs a +52 offset so it might be strange or it might be fine depending on what the KA is.

I'd test fit one first, Ka wheels have a 38mm offset, against the Fiesta's 52mm, it may hit on the suspension.

Thanks!
Does that mean the wheel is offset further out from the car than the originals? Are there any other Ford steel wheel alternatives? I thought that the Festiva Ghia hubcaps and the lowest profile tyre I can fit would look good on her silver Ka2. They are 15 inch wheels right? Mike

Sorry, I meant Festiva!
Has anyone tried this wheel swap before? I thought these wheels and caps would look OK on the Ka: http://www.ford.com.au/servlet/Conte...1024&c=DFYPage Mike
