Focus wheels

Has anyone found out the offset and pcd for the new focus? Really want some rims as soon as my focus arrives but no tyre shops can tell me anything as they havent had a new focus yet.

does anyone have a picture of the 15 inch alloys that come with the smooth pack option on the base model mk2 focus?? also what do you reckon that they would be worth as a trade in brand new with the tyres?. just need an idea my dealer told me $500 with tyres but i think that isnt really what they are worth especially considering they are genuine ford wheels and brand new tyres???

$500 isn't a bad offer. If it was me I'd take it.

I don't think that you would get much more on ebay etc for them

dazza_1011 · 05-09-2005, 12:27 PM

yeh but when you consider the fact that they are brand new tyres that is not far off $400 just in tyres. so $100 for the alloys just seems inadequate

I think the $500 extra is what they put on top of the base model price as an indication of the value of the alloys. You gotta consider that standard rims and tyres are included in the listed price of the car, and more than likely, they are gona use the same tyres, so technically your paying $500 for the new rims, minus the standard alloys.... if that makes sense....

no i was going to get the dealer to get me new rims and tyres he came back with a price of about $1500 which is about the going price for 17 inch wheels and tyres. then he said that they would give me $500 as a trade on the alloys and tyres. so it would be a $1000 changeover. i didnt like the wheels he picked out anyway so i told him no, but im just wondering what people would think to be a fair price for the alloys with the new tyres.

Anyone know what other cars in Australia have this PCD?

Also has anyone tried trading the 16" on the LX up to the 17" on the Zetec? How much did it set you back?

dazza_1011 · 08-09-2005, 10:48 AM

i was told $1800 as a trade up from just the steel wheels for the 17 zetec ones

Parasite · 08-09-2005, 01:13 PM

Do you know what kind of tyres they were going to put on?

I just orded a CL Hatch with the smooth pack, and traded the wheels in for the Zetec 17'' ones, and getting a Zetec body kit fitted for $3,000-
Should be getting it sometime in October.

Parasite · 08-09-2005, 11:11 PM

Does the $3000 include the smooth pack or just the wheels and bodykit?

Tonner · 09-09-2005, 04:27 PM

The $3000- includes just the wheels and supply paint and fit body kit
