    850r with focus ST wheels

    Hi, I don't seem able to go through previous threads on my phone, but there is a Focus ST 2007 in my mates compound which has been vandal damaged, he's offered me the ST 18" alloys and tyres very very cheap, just wondering if they would fit my 850 '96' before I go down to collect. Cheers in advance

    The stud pattern will, but, the centre bore on the ST rims is smaller than the Volvo's hub.

    Ford is 63mm volvo is 65mm

    the bolt pattern is the same, but offset is 52mm (ours is 40-45mm). Think they've got a small hub bore in the middle, can be machined out tho

    I thought yours were Mondingo rims, they do suit the car

    I have focus 18 alloys and had centre bore done fit great and better still look similar to Volans but without the price tag.

    I like the st wheels keep thinking about them but never see them cheap so I would buy them and get them fitted
