Hey everyone,

So right now, I have a 2019 Ford Fiesta SE Sedan that I’m looking to do some aesthetic mods to. I don’t want it to look rice, and I really don’t want to do anything to mess with economy.

I’m trying to Achieve flush fitment on my wheel setup, and I will not be using coil overs or camber kits or anything like that to do so. I currently have stock wheels on it(15x6+45) and P185 60 R15 tires.

I am looking at going to 16” wheels possibly 16x8 or 16x7 but I want a little wider than 6” wide. What offset could I go with to get this flush fitment, I’m looking for, and is it smart to go up to 16 and just do a 45 or 50 profile tire, what width and offset should I go with? I’m kinda limited to the look of wheels I want, but offset matter with flush fitment, no poke.

Thanks guys!

Assuming the hub to outer fender distance is the same on the SE and ST, the Konig Dekagram 16x8 +40 results in a pretty flush fitment. I run those wheels with a 215/45r16 tire and really like the setup. I'm on stock suspension at the moment and the wheel gap isn't too bad, granted the SE will sit a little higher.

I believe the other common tire size for that wheel is a 205/50r16.

16x8 +40mm Dekagrams w/ 215/45R16's. Grab some Bilstein B8's and some lowering springs(Whiteline/Swift) and that will be about flush, functional and not introduce too much bumpsteer. If i had an SE with a manual this is the route id take. Its softer than B-spec rates but with a ton more tire. Throw in a rear sway bar and the car would be a hoot on track.

If you want to be "stancebro" i think youre in the wrong sub.

I get slight poke I think with 16x8 +38 w 205/50/16 tires. My guess however is the tires being more meaty contributes to the poke as well.

dekagrams in 16x8 are +40 iirc, so maybe thats a safer bet
