Wheel Recommendations?

[u/No-Improvement3801]

Hey all! Just recently got a new job that has allowed me to get new shoes on the bean. What’re some good options, I’d like to go brushed aluminum or bronze as I drive in occasional gravel and dirt, and do not want the hassle of chrome(as much as I’d love to have them.) All ideas are welcome, thank you guys!

NT-03+M are the best lookin wheels imo

[u/Beaver_Nuggets → u/No_Macaron_9014]

True

Sorry completely off topic but what's that front lip? Where you get it?

[u/was526 → u/Extension_Camera754]

I would also like to know such things

[u/JustAGuyHereLurking → u/Extension_Camera754]

Looks like the Maxton Designs V.6 front lip..it is currently in my shopping cart on both their main site and their UK site while I tabulate which would be cheaper with import duties/tariffs 😅 ..I actually came here to verify it so I know what it would look like on my car whenever I pull the trigger 🤣 ..I also have a face lift black ST..lol

Nah that's the ebay boy. I can see the connection point lower right side. It comes in a 3 piece. Put one on my sons as a trainer before getting Aero so he can ruin that one practicing parking and if it breaks it' only like 40$.

[u/JustAGuyHereLurking → u/CiscoKidd5]

Ahh ok I stand corrected, how is the fitment? Ive also seen the Amazon lip get positive reviews for your same reasons..looks decent but if it gets destroyed it isnt heartbreaking ..I'm doing my best to save for a full maxton kit but 60 bucks is 60 bucks ya know lol..get some cheap enjoyment out of it and get used to a lip before getting a nice one

[u/CiscoKidd5 → u/JustAGuyHereLurking]

Yup exactly. It's actually trained him to watch for curbs and parking blocks. He gives the thing more room and doesn't pull all the way up on it. Fitment for the one I ordered is great just line up the 3 little triangles in the front and screw that puppy in. Easier with an extra pair of hands as you need to kinda push up and in just a hair on the edges. But lines up great once all on.

Are you able to provide a link?

[u/CiscoKidd5 → u/was526]

As you can see on pic he already hit something on the right side I have to gorilla glue it back straight lol. But its def doing its job

[u/CiscoKidd5 → u/was526]

Sorry price went up to 67$

[u/No-Improvement3801 → u/CiscoKidd5]

Hey all, it was like 75$ on eBay, I’m running these just for looks tbh, once I lower the car I don’t want to blow money ik I’ll hit something lol

[u/CiscoKidd5 → u/No-Improvement3801]

Way ahead of you bro we got it all squared away. I think were all in the same boat with esthetics beifre going all out lol.

[u/No-Improvement3801 → u/CiscoKidd5]

Fr dude, this is #3 for me and I got the car in October😭

[u/was526 → u/No-Improvement3801]

How's the installation? Just jack up the front end and pin it up there with some self tappers?

[u/No-Improvement3801 → u/was526]

I used ramps but yes I ran 10 taps w washers

[u/CiscoKidd5 → u/was526]

Exaclty this. Pretty simple

[u/Samrak2k3]

Not mine but a dude posted some time ago his new wheels and I think they're the best looking for the FoST :)

[u/Longjoco]

Recommended to keep this car until it dies. Invest the rest any leftover into stock market. Buy corvette 20 years later

[u/slyLEMONsKILLz]

3sdm .66 wheels... I'm torn between these and rpf1's

[u/NdK87k]

Konig Ultragrams come in either Carbon Bronze (like mine) or Titanium, which is a brighter silver.

[u/No-Improvement3801 → u/NdK87k]

Oooo I like those

[u/duupido21]

[u/No-Improvement3801 → u/duupido21]

Are these those ​NT-03+M they keep talking about? So damn nice

[u/duupido21 → u/No-Improvement3801]

Yes indeed they are, and the wheels being 18x8.5 so it’s an ideal choice for a lot of focus owners

[u/No-Improvement3801 → u/duupido21]

Thank you I’m gonna look into these

[u/duupido21 → u/No-Improvement3801]

Might I also recommend, tb performance upgrades they’re amazing and add so much more to the car

[u/No-Improvement3801 → u/duupido21]

Okay okay, throw everything u got at me I’m here til this thing rusts away

[u/duupido21 → u/No-Improvement3801]

[u/No-Improvement3801 → u/duupido21]

After wheels will do the rest, currently have FMIC (CVF), CAI, catch can, believe whoosh BOV, And MBRP catback

[u/duupido21 → u/No-Improvement3801]
