Ford Focus wheel fitment — Rs I DBY
Overview
The second generation Ford Focus (C307/C170) was launched at the Paris Motor Show in September 2004, replacing the first-generation model. Available as a three and five-door hatchback and an estate initially, it later included a four-door sedan variant introduced mid-2005. The car featured a stiffer bodyshell for improved ride quality but critics noted that its handling was not as precise compared to its predecessor. Stylistically, the Mk 2 adopted design elements from Ford's Mondeo and Fiesta models while retaining recognizable Focus features. Technological advancements included KeyFree system, solar-reflect windshield, adaptive front lighting, Bluetooth hands-free phones, and voice control for audio, telephone, and climate control systems.
Ford Focus wheel fitment
Ford Focus wheel fitment for the Ford Focus Rs (I) DBY (2002–2005): the factory PCD, centre bore and bolt spec, then the aftermarket width and offset window we fit to.
| Bolt pattern (PCD) | 4x108 |
| Centre bore | 63.4 mm |
| Bolt / thread | M12x1.5 (nuts) |
| Seat type | tapered |
| Factory setup | square |
| TPMS | direct |
Aftermarket wheel sizes — read per position:
| Position | Width | Offset |
|---|---|---|
| Front | 7J–8.5J | ET30–ET42 |
As a rule, each extra 1J of width wants roughly +8–10 ET to keep the wheel tucked. The exact offset and any spacer are confirmed by the fit-check.
UK popularity & demand

The Mk II version of the Ford Focus ST debuted in 2005 with enhanced performance features. A minor facelift was introduced in 2007-2008, incorporating Kinetic Design philosophy. In 2009, a new Focus RS model was launched featuring an updated engine.
