They will fit fine but your speedo will read about 5pmh faster than you are going.

Assuming that the rims have the required hole spacing and off set, will they fit over the brakes?

Actually from what I have seen, there are a few Foci's here in NH that have the Zetec Engine and are running the 14inch tires during the winter time and yes most of these are the ZX3's.

All the focuses can use any focus/contour/cougar rim from 14 up to 17+. The only Focus that can only use the 16 & 17 inch rims is the SVT.
