20 inch Foundry wheels are in!

[Dennis_]

Yes!
Finally. My 20 inch sweethearts are in.

Tomorrow we will install the Eibach set and these beauties!

PS: What is this for and why is it there?
I know I have to peel it there

Those will look great

Would be great if those were a legit option. Current EU spec wheels aren't bad but for a unique sports car like this they are rather simple.

It may have been used as a guide to help balance the wheels. When you get done installing your Eiback kit, please post pics. My car came with the same wheels and to be honest, it fills the wheel well very nicely. People ask me if I have lowered my car but I have not.

Is that done with the official ford dealers? I had only the 19 inch option And pay 500 € per rim

You know, funny thing is that those rims are made in China!

No, it was a more-or-less private import. I asked if I could order trough Ford NL. Just hearing the sound of crickets so far.

Most wheels are made in China. Including all standard 19" wheels we have on our cars.

Most wheels are made in China.

Well, that confirms that the S550 is truly a global car!:ford:

I will post pics of course.
Now... let's install everything.

Ps: indeed, I did a private import of this set.

 

[Ericc B]

Dennis, I had the same peel off labels on my wheels when my car arrived. Perhaps they are to indicate that the wheels are brand new and haven't been used?

 

[MELLOWYELLOW06]

Congrats.
I love these rims, just wish they came in wider widths.

Nice rims.

I almost feel the pain to my back just by looking.......

Even 19" are too much for greek roads....

 

[fastpony]

Nice rims man!!! I like those as well but am afraid that the ride will be to hard.
Can you get those wheels in 19"?
I'm also intrested in Eibach springs so I will follow this thread for sure.
Let us know how it is.

 

[Ericc B]

Can you get those wheels in 19"?

Nope these only come in 9x20.

Installed them today. Together with the Eibach set this is a killer combination!

But now I have a tpms problem I think.
Check tire pressure lights up. I can only reset the warning, but after 20 minutes the warning comes back again.
I was told the wheels are equipped with tpms. But how do I learn the car there are new rims installed.

The ride comfort did not change at all. I do not notice a difference in comfort. Just right.

BTW. ... here some pics.
