yeah they will fit but offset will be out
puma offset is very unique its one of the changes they made over the fiesta, wider track all round through use of different rear beam (early Pumas had fiesta beam and 11mm spacers) and lower offset wheels
the puma is very sensitive to wheel offset changes too, anything higher can fuck it up completely

as fro said, it transformed into money which meant i had a deposit for a house
it's so much better having a car i don't give a fuck about.
just been down the tip with cat shit and broken glass in the boot. took the boot carpets out a while ago so no mess at all
no way would i have done that in the focus.

would like to but tbh i just can't be bothered. got better things to spend my money on at the moment and springs don't seem to make much difference on puma's.
