Default 17" Gold EAP Focus Wheels

Does Ford Racing not sell these anymore? I'm in the market for new wheels, and I think these would go great with my car. I'm looking for something gold or bronze.
I was checking out the site and all they have are the 5 and 6 spoke SVT Wheels, and then the silver and black EAP wheels and then the 18" RS Wheels.

Nope. They are no longer made.

You can pickup Argent EAPs for cheap, and have them powdercoated any color you want.

Thanks. Do you know why they stopped making them in gold?

They needed room for more Mustang crap...

LOL, j/k.

Ford stopped making alot of the Focus parts around the same time. Everything went discontinued. They also diso'd most the other colors of wheels. I'm really not sure why they stopped all of a sudden, making so many Focus parts, and disco'd everything.

The site is either not been updated in a loooong time, or its back stock that never sold(unlikely).

Let us know if you order, if they have anymore!

Lol, most likely the site has never been updated.

I know when i was looking for my Gold Rally's (after they were discontinued and noone had them any more about a couple years ago) i had emailed them, amoung other sites, asking about it and all the reply's i got back were that they were no longer in stock.

I mean it's still worth a shot but i wouldn't be surprised if they didn't have them.

Well I have a buddy that can get discount on FRPP stuff, so I figured I would go for the wheels, but oh well.

Yeah, we all have a buddy that gets discounts from Ford.

His name is Steve, and we all love Steve...

But Ford can't get them anymore either, unless you find a dealer with a set in backstock that never sold.

If anyone is interested, I am thinking about doing some wheel swapping on my DD if I buy a track car. I have the Ford Racing Gold EAP wheels in perfect shape with about 5k miles on them, and I may sell them if they don't fit my needs.

Right now they have my street tires on them, and my 5 spoke wheels have my track tires. If I buy a track car, I'll keep the 5 spokes and I'll sell the gold EAP wheels.

PM me if anyone would be interested - I don't mind shipping.

Jegs still sell the gold EAP, just called them about it. As well as many secret goodies. Search "Focus" you'll be surprised.
