mrtn Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Yes they fit fine if center bore matches. https://www.wheelfitment.eu/car/Ford/Transit Connect (2003 - 2013).html Your speedo will read a tiny bit slower than with factory size.

JonBowerbank Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Just put the same 16” rims & tire size on my ‘12 TC, and fits great. I had steelies on before, and the difference is really shocking in terms of acceleration & control Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had steelies on before, and the difference is really shocking in terms of acceleration & control Would you still recommend this size? I have a 2013 TC i'm needing new tires for. I dislike the steelie look but don't necessarily want to change the overall diameter of the tire too drastically. Do you think that the difference in acceleration and control was due to the rim size increase, or due to new tires? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
