Some guy on the jet.

Widebody on the 05 looks pretty good.

I really like that kit

Finally An 05 I Like. - S2 - 05-31-2005

I like it but the rims on that car look WAY to small with that big kit.

Need blackouts on the bumper corners and bigger rims. Otherwise, it's tiiiiiight. :)

And it uses stock turns :P That's a wicked looking car... those ST170 rims are too small tho... definately needs 18's, and some spacers. Look how far in they sit vs the kit...

Those arent ST170 wheels, they're similar but the ST170s have a big "Ford" centercap covering the lugs.

But definitely the car needs bigger and wider wheels (or spacers) to fill the kit out better, the big fender flares make the wheels look a lot smaller.

Yupo.

Space those wheels and we're in buisiness.

is there a PROPER way of widening the track width of the focus?

I think I had read somewhere that you could use contour control arms or even if you could get RS hardware to properly put your wheels out where they belong would be sweet!

and then you wouldn't have to ruin the handling with spacers to get the proper look.

Wow...looks like I got some catching up to do with my 05'...

I thought i heard somewhere that even the RS wasn't a proper wide track car .. it just had bigger offset wheels or something nuffie-speed and custom-ish done to it to make it flo better witht he fender flares

Looks good, but I'd go with a totally different wheel.

Finally An 05 I Like. - laidman - 06-05-2005

Damn thats nice!! I have the same colour FOcus but in a ZX5, and its stock.

Finally An 05 I Like. - 05-BLACK-ZX5 - 06-05-2005

Those wheels are 16", and are definitely too small. Wide 18" wheels would look much better, and suit that style much more. Maybe in black, since the front grill and mesh are black already.

Otherwise, I like it, it's not too extravagant or agressive, although the screw holes in the fender flares would have to be filled if I were to install it on my 05. :)
