I will be receiving new rims and the Bridgestone Blizzaks for my ST next week. I bit the bullet and bought 20” FAST rims, and the OEM TPMS monitors 51405225-25DC-4726-8C78-32451589A95D.jpeg

Nice! I also added 20 inch Fast Rims FC04 and Blizzaks on my new toy for Montreal winter. I also run Blizzaks on my 2019 Sport and they work well. Good bang for the buck imo.

I had a pro tire shop that specializes in tires and mags match the hub, size, offset and everythign else. It is driving very smooth. How would I tell if the hub diameter did not match up?

If the hub diameter is too small they wouldn’t fit all together. But if the diameter is larger, you would need an adaptor kit. This is no big deal, but because I swap out my own wheels, I didn’t want to have to deal with storing the adaptor kits.

i love the rims. I believe FAST make a quality product!

My Fast rims were also around 230$. CAD $$ (yes hub adapter kit included) I paid 2200$ (tax extra :mad:) for 4 Rims, 4 Blizzaks, 4 sensors, mounted, installed, balanced etc... Good deal! Also I will avoid the 125$ twice a year ($250) to mount/dismount the 21 inch summer/winters and also avoid that wear and tear on the rims. Plus more than likely these rims can be used on the next truck as well... I keep telling myself this to justify it... btw, happy to give my wheel shop a plug, if that's allowed https://www.magsandtires.com/ Speak to Ivan, tell him I sent you! Montreal area, but they ship anywhere i think??

Hi everyone,

I am waiting for my appointment this 19th but I managed to put my hand on a set of new lincoln 20" mag for 400$ each and will be fitted with nokian r3 suv.

I had hakka 9 on my fusion and there were amazing so r3 shouldn't be a disappointment .

Hey fellow Canadian owners.... heading into the first winter with our ST.

Looking for some tips on rims etc. I looked up those Fast wheels mentioned above and I like that the company is CDN.

Question... should I match the offset on a set of 20" rims to the OEM offset for those STs that come with the 20s?

Another page on the forum states:
Explorer ST Wheel Offset:
20" - 44.5mm

So I assume an offset of 45mm would work? Any tips are welcomed.

Thanks!

Did you get snow? I'm in Mississauga where there isn't snow just yet lol.
I am also in need of winter tires/rims.
I was thinking of going to Ford and ordering through them.
