Damn Bodytech, your car looks fantastic!!! Those are the best looking flares I've seen for the Fiesta.
I got my new wheels and tired on today.
16x7 Rota Grid +40, hyper black
205/50 Firestone Firehawk Indy 500
Stock suspension.
I only drove it maybe a mile (the shop is just down the street from my home) but it felt so much better on the rough roads and over speed bumps. Zero regrets. I highly recommend San Diego Wheel and Tire Outlet. They knocked it out fast, didn't trip on me standing there watching like a nerd, and were respectful of my property. I think it's time for Eibach springs, I'd like to close that gap a bit.

M2 motoring flares, Japan racing 21's in a 17x9 wrapped in Toyo R1R's 235/40/17.
These tires are an inch taller then stock though and they rub slightly at full lock in reverse... going forward works fine though, I'm not sure how to explain that one lol. I was afraid the extra tire height and weight would make things laggy or sloppy but its honestly not noticeable

)Yeah, honestly after looking at it in person again, I really don't think it needs lowering. Best to put that money towards something else. The 205/50 setup is really nice. I actually like the little added bit of body roll, and it's pretty minor to be honest. It's worth the trade in ride quality. The difference is night and day. I took a detour through an industrial park after dinner, and these Indy 500 tires really grip, and they were 89 bucks a pop. I'll definitely get them again.
