What tires are coming OEM on the Focus?
I only want these rims if they look the same as the E1 rims.

Offset

Bolt pattern

It's the bolt pattern that is 4x108, not the offset.

Understand offset, bolt pattern, and the difference between the two, and you'll understand why I multiplied them.. Sarcasm...

This thread has someone saying that the offset will be 49mm.

Here is a decent picture of the SVT Focus. Click the picture and get a much larger version and you should be able to tell what the wheels look like.

Another thread , again, 49mm offset, 4x108 bolt pattern, 22.5lbs.

Hmmmm....memorable quotes from CEG forums:

P3rry: Well, I got the numbers. How do you like them apples?


Memorable quotes from a great movie

I have got 2 sets sold - just need 2 more sets to make the buy smile

No, no tires. That would take this from a great deal to an unbelievable deal... "buy 4 tires and the rims are free!!"

Now here is an important question, and I'm thinking we won't know this until someone tries it. Will these rims clear the Bear Brake Kit or even the Wilwood Brake kit from BAT? If they do this is a nice deal on OEM quality wheels.
