Morning.

As you know i've got a 2003 MK6 Fiesta Ghia with Zetec alloys in the boot ready to be fitted. I'm wondering before I put them on if I should get the car lowered slighty as i think there is a slight suspension height difference.
Anybody know if there is a difference between the Ghia and Zetec ?

Pictures would also be appreciated.

Cheers
Paul

Hi your difference in ride height is usually due to springs, unless you fitted ford springs you will find that it alters the geometry causing your tyres to run off. The only way round this is to completly lower it using new springs and dampers or just fit the wheels and see how they look, they may be ok when on the car. But the ride height difference wont matter to how the car drives on the new wheels compared to standard ones.
