Default Thought on new wheel idea!!!!

Just wondering what ever one's thoughts on these wheels that I am thinking of getting for my 2006 Focus Zetec, The colour of the car is pure silver aswell and the wheel size I am looking at is 18inch. The car will also be lowered with king superlows so this is why I only want to go 18's

They are as follows:

They look **** hot but I'm wondering if there's a design without the black 'hyperfang' spokes in the background, even that would look nice.

BlackLS will have one on the weekend, so might get someone to photoshop them on the car to give me a better idea.

Photn I saw those aswell but I like the 5 spoke look of the main section of the wheel.

they are good looking wheels but i just feel the focus deserves a spokey wheel, ill show u one i found and think would look awesome on the focus. They are from Germany but can get them shipped here at a pretty good price, i have already spoken to the guy about em.

Also they are 8.5" wide!! would look great with those side guards from a rear look

More options are the ones in the link...they custom drill to many different sizes (if you don't like chrome, they do silver finishes for most wheels)

FYI, Focus PCD: 5x108, offset can be 43-52

http://www.bsa-gallop.com/products.php

These guys have a showroom in Sydney as well (they are also drilled in a huge factory in Syd...Hurstville from memory, will confirm that if anyone's interested)

That does look the goods.... would look great on the silver car as well

What is that dark bit on the top of your rear bumper?
Did Ford put a rubber strip there?
Kind of a funny spot for it.

well it costs $218 a wheel so you will be lookin at roughly $1000-$1100 shipped. I did ask him about tyres but he was offering cheap brand ones so i would suggest getting your own down here. still a pretty good price i reckon, with a good set of tyres here all up around $2000. Plus they are already 5 x 108 pcd so no drilling needed i think the best looking rim ive seen on a focus by far.
