Hi Guys
I currently have a Ford fiesta 2018 with 15" alloys. 195/60/15
I'm wanting to purchase and upgrade to 17/18" alloys, could someone give me some help on how this will happen? I understand I will need a larger tyre etc but what about fitting, will it work?
Thanks

Well you need to know the lug pattern for one. In your case it's 4x108.
You'll want to find some wheels that are either 17" or 18" (i'd say 17" may look better).
For fitment you'll want to look at other Fiestas with similar specs to the wheels you want. For example a wheel that's 17 x 9 +35 may not fit well at all.
In your case the best looking setup would probably these specs:
4x108 Lug pattern (A must for the wheels to fit)
17 x 8 +45
17 inches being the diameter
8 inches being the width
+45 being the wheel offset from the hub
The specs I put above (17 x 8 +45) seem to have flush fitment to the cars fenders based on some searches.
The information above is from some very quick research for your vehicle.
I'd recommend you look into it a bit more before making a decision.
