Default Focus Wheels

Hi guys
Have a 09 LV Zetec in white and am in the market for a set of wheels for it. Preferably in 18 inch. Any pics of any with wheels or advice on which ones fit them would be great.

Cheers, Tyson

I'll give it to you straight. They ain't easy to get.

The focus (ls lt and lv) have a 5x108 stud pattern, which is pretty Rare.
Any good wheel shop prepared to put in the hard yards will be a big help, but tyre places will just tell you that you can't get anything for them. Lazy buggers.

I can't recomend direct wheels in Blacktown in sydney enough, but that's not much help for you in waikerie. (hey! I got family down there! )

You may want to try Wheel Worx in Adelaide. They have a good range and are FAR more helpful than most retail outlets.
My daughter got hers from there.
