16 Or 15" Zx5 Rims - ZX5chica - 07-06-2006

I'm looking to pick up a set of either 16 or 15" rims for my winter tires for my new ZX5. If anyone has a pair kicking around that would fit my car, please PM me. Preference for picking them up as close to Ottawa as possible!!

Good to know about the 15"s... I was told at the dealership there would be no problem having them fit the new car.... I was ready to go out and buy a pair of 15s.

Thanks!

You seem to be talking about only getting/buying a "Pair" of wheels for your winter tire set-up.

The conventional wisdom says you should only install winter tires on all four wheels. You would be better off without winter tires if you only plan on putting two on your car.

Cheers.

Hmmm, interesting. Can anyone else confirm the first statement? If other 06 Focus' come with 15" rims (including ZX3, ZX4, and wagon), why wouldn't you be able to fit 15's on the ZX5??? :unsure: Larger/different brakes just on the ZX5 doesn't make sense...

The first statement was incorrect.

The standard wheel for 2005 (and 06) is 15" which is up from 14" for 00-04 to accomodate the bigger rotor. All Foci get the same front brakes so 15" wheels will fit all models for 05 +.

alrighty... thanks for clearing that up!!
