First post
My local dealer has a set of 16" Focus rims and tires that are TO's from an 01 for $400. They couldn't tell me with 100% confidence if they would fit on my 98 SE. Can you guys? In general, are all OEM Focus rims/tires compatible with the 98-00 Contours?
Thanks - I'm looking to possibly upgrade from the 14" steel rims and hub caps on our new beater car we just purchased.

They should fit. The Focus shares the same wheel bolt pattern as the Contour.
Plus I think a couple of guys around here did they same thing you are thinking about already.

I've got 15" Focus wheels on my wifes Zetec. They where 300 shipped with brand new tires and lug nuts. It's hard to beat that.
