Question WT Fiesta and 17 inch rims

I am getting a new WT Zetec Hatch in a few weeks and looking at fitting a set of 17's. I have done a search and most, if not all of the info re offsets/tyre sizes etc. relates to the German built models with a PCD of 4X108 - does anyone know if the details below (cut&paste from an older thread) would apply to my Thai built model?
''You need 17" wheels ...... with an offset of ET40 matched to 205/40R17 tyres''
I plan on going past a few tyre shops, but I thought it was best to do a bit of research before hand.

Thanks in advance Moorie.

Rumour has it that the WT's wheel set-up is based on the Mazda 2's, which is made in the same factory. Maybe check out whatever is intended to fit a Mazda 2.

The WP, WQ and WS (euro) Fiestas including the XR4 (ST) have a pcd of 4x108.

Its the new Thai-made 2011 WT Fiesta that has the 4x100 pcd wheels/hubs.
