Ford did use 14" steelies on early base model Focus sedans, ZX3's never got them though.

Unless your upgraded to ST or SVT brakes, they should fit a stock Focus as well. So I'm not sure why they won't fit your car.

All '05 and up cars have the same size brakes up front, 280mm rotors with SVT style calipers. Thats why. :D

Thats because they still have the everlasting do nothing rear drums, I swear all the drum brakes are good for is weight bias. 8)

hummm, did not know that. thank you for the info, now i won't look as dumb next time
i have no prob with drums.i acctully don't like rear dics. i only had on one car (06 pontiac g6) and they wore out just as fast as the front. which in my line of work is a big prob. i might go rear disc if i ever get to my project focus...
