The rims are 17" Riax Monza rims. They are 225/45/17, is 225 too wide for the focus? I am planning on lowering it at some point in the future and will probably stick with these rims for a while.
Does anyone forsee any problems at all?

You need to find out the width and offset of the rims in order to know for sure ... a 7" rim with a moderate offset would be better than an 8" rim with a high offset.
IMO a wide tire and a wide rim with a high positive offset will likely spell trouble on a lowered car.
