In the last issue of Fast Ford & Performance ford they have both these alloys on two feature 's which they both look very nice, The cossie wheels were powder coated and the ones was polished.

st1989's black ST once had the RS wheels on.. (or is that a very good Photoshop? lol Anyways..



To make them fit an ST properly though they'll need approx 5mm taking off.

I'm still upset that the ones don't just bolt straight on...
I would have loved those, but now I'm dying to get my alloys powder coated because everyone who has done it, it looks the tits!
