Default We will have many Work Wheels on display at FOTB!

Since we are now an authorized Work Wheels dealer we will be bringing an assortment of display wheels that will work on the Focus if we want to bring them to the Focus market.

I'll make a list of which wheels will be on display on Monday, but let me know what you want to see and if it can be made for the Focus I'll see about bringing it if we aren't already.

Meisters, yes we will have. Can't do Brombachers since they are only made for Porches and their bolt pattern. I already asked about them and they said no way.

Isn't there some other wheel by Work that looks like the Brombachers but is made for other cars, I know I've seen them on RX-7's or something. It has "XX" somewhere in the wheel name.

I didn't know that they made a 4x108 bolt pattern Emotion. Those are the wheels I had on my Z, and I bet they would look bad ass on the Focus.

I don't think they made ANYTHING in 4x108 until FocusSport stepped up to the plate.

These are display wheels. Most have never been made for the Focus yet so the weights don't exist. The display wheels will be close in weight, but since we haven't picked them up yet, I don't know what they are.

Also, I would need to know if that would be 7" or 8" width. And of course the custom fee would apply for one-off sets since we are not making these yet.

Unless you are after the CR-Kai, everything else on the list would be custom except for the Meisters. And maybe the VS-XX, but I need to check on that.

I don't know that there is a "Focus" offset anymore. I know my new wheels are far from the offset you'd normally think would fit. And also width has to be considered. And brakes. And tire brand and size.

What "fits" is open to interpretation, aside from contact of course.

I'm thinking you might have done some "test fitting" and tossed the standard "Focus" offset out the window. In this case I think you might have fitted some aggressive wheels and tires under a Focus (like you have done in your show vehicles) and maybe you would want to share those pictures with us. I truly hope this is the case because it has always been far too difficult to attain a set of aggressive wheels and tires that fit the focus and it wouldn't suprise if FS brought them to us.

Oh I see. Ivan and I discussed this and we also went to Work Wheels USA to do some measuring and test fitting of wheels. I wanted something with a nice lip on it, kinda like what we did with our blue 2008 Focus at the 2007 SEMA show. Well...I don't have them yet. They are being made in Japan as I type this. I was hoping to have them for FOTB, but I doubt its going to happen. There is still a chance, though.
