Re: I got my svt rims today
Just a heads up, the OEM size for the SVT Focus with these wheels is 215/45R17, so what he's got now isn't too far off from what went on those wheels from the factory on the SVTF.

Re: I got my svt rims today
Yes, I said that the tires will actually "work" fine. My complaint is the "look", that size looks fine on a small car like a civic, but the cougar being larger and having even larger wheels wells to me it just looks silly. Cougarpimp had the same size tires on his cougar, and they always stuck out like a sore thumb to me.

Re: I got my svt rims today

They're off the 2004 SVT Focus. These rims are still readily available, unlike a lot of the aftermarket rims from Ford. North Coast Performance has them on sale,(2004 SVT Focus Wheel) and you can find them on eBay from time to time. /oldish thread

Re: I got my svt rims today
No prob mang, I like these rims a little more then the 03' 5 spoke FSVT rims on a Cougar.
I wouldn't mind a set of these, or a set of Euro FSVT rims.
