  1. TRADED CMAX, WHEELS PART OF DEAL
  2. Car looks better with 16" wheels and tires. The low profile 17" just look goofy and do not fill wheel wells. I may buy some OEM 16" wheels for the summer.

  4. This evening I installed the 16" wheels and everything seems fine. It is up to you to decide for yourself, but I researched the Ford Germany site and selected the 16" tire size based on that. Then I chose wheels suitable for a Focus which is the same platform as the C Max. Here is what I ordered: 4 16x7 Borbet BS5 Bright Sil In Stock $137.00 $548.00 4 Required centering ring In Stock N/C N/C 20 Required lugnut for vehicle (Nickel Plated) In Stock N/C N/C 1 Lug adapter In Stock N/C N/C 4 315MHz Tire Pressure Sensor In Stock $32.00 $128.00 4 Optional Silver Metal Valve In Stock $3.99 $15.96 4 215/55R-16 Michelin X-Ice Xi3 XL Download Warranty Brochure PDF In Stock $136.00 $544.00 4 Mount and Balance (No Charge) In
  5. Jacking points are not a big deal here.... There are arrows molded into the rocker panel trim, and up underneath are nice strong seams in the steel exposed to jack up the car. No worries.
  6. I just ordered 215 55 16 Michelin X Ice x-i3 and Borbet BS5 from Tire Rack. I did not call them, I just ordered the Focus sized wheels and chose between 205 60 or 215 55 tires. I checked out the Ford.de (Germany) winter tire page. They sell both sizes, I chose the larger tires for both looks and load capacity, and figured that 215 width was better with 7" wide wheels. Next week I will mount the wheels and report on the results.
