I am. I live in the NW burbs. White Fiesta ST. I have not seen any other on the road so far.

I'm In Bartlett. I don't own a FiST or FoST yet, but I will shortly. I currently drive a red 2009 focus that's quite low if you guys see me feel free to stop or give me a honk.

FiST will be on order on Thursday for me. Focus ZX3 -> Fusion -> Fiesta. Guess I am a Ford guy after all. I used to organize autox events on focaljet for the group. Might have to get back into it again.

Looks like we won't be having any big get togethers. 6 more weeks or so and I should have my PB ST rocking the western suburbs

I just bought Fiesta ST and plan to treat it as a useful hobby! I live on the North side of Chicago and have put GT Altima's on it because the Potenza's won't handle Chicago snow. I plan to good to the Racing and Performance Expo Sunday Feb. 23rd at Pheasant Run.

Congrats on the purchase. Mine should be shipping out soon for an early march delivery. What did you do with the stock tires? I am opting for a whole set of snow tires and new rims.

 

[DownshiftCliff]

I did what you are planning to do. I have the "summer only" tires on the rims that came with the car and purchased from the dealer the same rims fitted with the GT Altima tires.

 

[DownshiftCliff]

I think you will really like the car! It is peppy and handles wonderfully.

How much did another set of stock wheels set you back?

 

[DownshiftCliff]

The rims and wheels cost $1700. I might have found them at a lower price if I shopped around a bit, but the Ford Dealer was good at finding them. I don't know how easy it is to find rims other than what comes from Ford that will fit. And the tires do require the pressure sensor stems.

Mine will be for sale shortly, new tires (pluses of taking winter delivery), TPMS, Rado Grey wheels... eight fiddy

$1700

I'm from St. Louis Area. I'll be up there for the WannaGoFast Half Mile event at the end of next month... Maybe we can get some guys to come through... If you want details, I'll be happy to provide them.
