You may get some uneven wear on the inside of your tyre though.

Because Fiesta's have a solid beam rear Axel, nothing changes when the car sits lower or higher and it will just continue the wear the insides the same amount as it does with the factory setup. The front can be adjusted of course. You get into problems with cars that have non adjustable independent rear ends but that's not the case with the Fiesta
