Yeah you are bias towards the Focus products. I bet Ara would still have his SVT if he had $25,000,000.

Now let me get back to the topic. The SVT rims definitely look a heck of a lot better on your car than the OZ rim in my opinoin. Now all you need to do is drop that bad boy another 1/2" and you would be all set.

Can't go any lower with the SVT wheels, they already just rub a little when I'm at the locks. That's the 49mm offset for ya, the OZ's have a 42mm offset.

My wife has rims similar to the SVT Euro on the Eclipse and I like that style. The only problem I have with those type of rims are the weight. Nothing is more annoying than having 20+lbs rims on a I4.

that and cleaning the damn things...sheesh the guy who owned these before me, you'd think he didn't know what a wheel brush was ;) True though, they are tougher to clean than the O.Z.'s but only marginally, as for weight, they are only a bit heavier than the O.Z.'s. I found the wrong weight on one site that said the OZ's were 25lbs, I thought that odd so I called OZ directly, 19lbs. so only 1lb less than the euros.

Neither............

You suck for having both!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


:D:D:D:fu:D:D:D

But seriously. I think the euro ones look better.

Or you can rice it up and put one set on the front and on an the back, or one set on one side and the other on the other side and maybe no one will notice right away and you will have spares if you hit a pot hole.

Joe if you enter the Autox this year you should go one oz and euro in the front and rear. This way when you run we would all have a good laugh seeing polished silver and dark gray as you drive.

Everyone's a comedian now huh? :)

There will be no ricing :)

But about autocrossing, I'm just slightly concerned I might rub with the Euro's while autocrossing, but I certainly can't convince myself to keep both sets of wheels, and my fiancee would have my balls if I tried.

Hmmm....

That is tough choice though seeing how nice the new Euro's look on your car. If the rubbing is a great concern for you than I would probably get rid o them both and buy some ultra light weight rims. :D
