I believe they are going to be 17X7 or 17X7.5, and the same bolt pattern as our Contours. Offset will be just fine, too...and knowing Ford wheels, they should be under a grand for a set. Anyone have pictures? They look nice, but unfortunately I don't have a picture handy. ------------------ aka dinanM3, black '99 SVT Contour with new goodies arriving all the time  My Photopoint Gallery

I'll probably get them. I 'REALLY' like them,
even though I already have 17" that I am
happy with.
Either the Focus wheels (already got the SVT
centercap too :-) or the 17" E1 lookalikes
like David Z. has. Not too much progress on
making those though.
I think they are 17x7 as well.

Sweet, thanks Roger! Seeing as how my SVT Contour E1 wheels are under 500 a set, and the 17X8 Cobra R's are 800 a set, I can't see the SVT Focus wheels costing all that much...probably somewhere in between. Best of all, they are Factory wheels (good quality), and yeah...they come with SVT centercaps  ------------------ aka dinanM3, black '99 SVT Contour with new goodies arriving all the time My Photopoint Gallery

Nate, or you can buy them slightly used from a Focus SVT owner after he gets aftermarket wheels for pretty cheap I'm sure... Gimme gimme. John ------------------ '98 SVT Contour with lotsa 'goodies'

John, Not a bad idea. I am going to wait for these wheels, I think they will look (and fit) great on the Contours. I'm sure some people will be selling them as soon as they get their Focii, and I will be waiting  ------------------ aka dinanM3, black '99 SVT Contour with new goodies arriving all the time My Photopoint Gallery

Do we know that the SVT Focus wheels will be
hub-centric for our cars? Unlike aftermarket
wheels (with hub-centric adapters and a more
universal fit) these are very likely going to
be hub-centric to the SVT Focus.
Perhaps better to ask... do we know if stock
15" and 16" Focus wheels fit the Contour?
