They are large images for me when click, but I'm not using a phone.
Thanks for posting up!
Rod, have you noticed much difference in braking since going to the 15" setup? I guess it might be hard to separate the change in braking from the wheel/tire size, versus... the change in tread / rubber.
LOL my son did that to his wheels and it looks ok but he has access to good grade powder coating and says if you don't like it we can just sandblast it and coat it again hehe
I was thinking about cheap black steelies for winter. The one I found has a recommended tire size of 205/55-15. Will that work with this car in winter?
We got 1.5" of wet/slushy snow the other morning and I had to attempt to drive to work on the summer tires. It wasn't fun. Dug out a set of 16" Focus wheels with old Blizzaks and installed them. Much better in the slush! Back to the factory 17" wheels until the next batch of winter weather strikes.

Haha I'm waiting to wake up to snow to. It's getting cold here in NY 35 degrees this morning. I know the tires are not supposed to be driven under 40 degrees but they felt fine so far. Lucky for me I kept my old honda civic on the road just in case.
It's already snowed here so figured when I picked her up from the dealer better just have them throw them on (Ford threw on steelies for free) Tires are some no name company tigerpaw, but hey they're winters, and they were free.. 185/60/R15

Thanks for the photo looks great! Will definitely consider those wheels if I go to 16's, they would work well on my black car. The slightly softer ride you mentioned in the other thread would be good for everyday driving too (for me), lots of rough roads where I live.
