Let me know where you can get them from. I bet they would look good on 16"s in gun metal.

[S. on Da 5]

Late breaking news!!

These wheels should be available by mid June in 2 sizes. 15 inch and 17 inch.

As of right now I am getting the 15's as soon as they are available

I am getting them in gun metal.!

12lb 15x6.5 inch wheels at a great price soon!!! Yipee!

These will be especially made to fit the Focus!!!

4x108 bolt pattern with a 40+ mm off set!!!

5 inch wheels, heh? that should be interesting!
those remind me of the white oz chrono wheels off the wrc focus.

Wow! They must have changed their minds since I contacted them about three months ago.

How much will the 17" wheel weigh?

[High_Ram]

Cool!! I'm interested!

I am gettin the 16" gun metal ones, only 14lbs ea.
www.asylumms.com has them for $118 each, and i believe it is only $10 a wheel to be custom drilled for 108 bolt pattern

[focus9]

Why, on asylum.com, when you move the mouse over the VPD wheels, does it change to a more "deep-dish" lookin wheel? Does it come in two styles?

[Maxximtl]

The "deep dish" looking wheel is for drag racing only. It's a 13" wheel designed for slicks. Not suitable for the street.

[MAlby7]

Those look exactly like the Konig Villains but white instead of silver!

[S. on Da 5]

These two are Tom Slicks. 13 inch only. Weigh 9 lbs. Good choice for affordable light weight wheels to drag with.

As of right now the only wheels that I was told today that would be available for the Focus without machine work are the VPD's in 15 and 17 inch sizes.

[Project ZX3-R]

9 lbs??? hmmmmmmm..

[bluee]

Are the wheels coming out produced specially for the Focus or is it simply custom drilled to fit the Focus? Also, what's the offset on the 16" and 17"s? Thanks in advance!

Custom order any size like CTZX3 or you can wait a little bit for wheels that are made just for the focus.

15x6.5 or 17x7 the bolt pattern 4x108 (Focus)

The off set 40 mm.

they told me today they are making the VDP for the focus in 17" only.

I am ordering next week the VDP in 16x7 with custom drilled 108mm bolt pattern and they will shave the offset to 40mm.

There are a few reps their. One of them told me 17 only about 4 days ago then 2 days ago I was told that they will have a 15 and a 17.

I was told that they would not do a Focus fitting in 16 however like you it could be machined.

I asked if I could place my order for Focus 15's and they said I could. So I hope there will be a 15.

In a 17 I would rather spend a little more money and get the OZ Superleggeras. They weigh 15 lbs. Unfortunately they do not offer 15's Or 16's.

WHAT ABOUT 18" AND 19"? We are always getting left out. Not everyone drags and wheels under 20lbs 18" and abovbe are almost un heard of.

What do they run? Where can i find a set?

[S. on Da 5]

Last I heard they were not making 15's afterall. Like I said I think 17" Superleggeras would be a better choice. I don't see a Focus wheel size here.

Guess they decided not to get into the Focus scene.
