Ford Focus wheel fitment — ST IV
Overview
The fourth generation Ford Focus (C519) was introduced in April 2018 to celebrate the brand's 20th anniversary. Available with sedan, hatchback, and estate body styles, it features a sportier exterior design and a simplified interior layout. The model emphasizes technology such as Sync 3 infotainment system, FordPass Connect, and CoPilot360 driver assistance suite. Production took place in Germany and China, but North American sales were limited to the Focus Active crossover-inspired trim due to tariffs imposed by the U.S. government on Chinese exports.
Ford Focus wheel fitment
Ford Focus wheel fitment for the Ford Focus ST (IV) (2012–2018): the factory PCD, centre bore and bolt spec, then the aftermarket width and offset window we fit to.
| Bolt pattern (PCD) | 5x108 |
| 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 | 6.5J–9J | ET32–ET55 |
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
Based on DfT VEH0124 vehicle-parc data (2025), there are approximately 886,255 Ford Focus on UK roads, placing it in the top 1% of car models by volume across our fitment database.
That makes Ford Focus wheel fitment a high-demand spec to keep in stock. It is one reason we track it here.

History & notable variants
The fourth generation saw a facelift for the European market in October 2021. Notably, Ford announced plans to discontinue the Focus by 2025 as part of its pivot towards electric and crossover vehicles. The model's production ended in line with this strategy, marking the end of an era for the compact car.
