sooooo, i made a purchase, bought some 225/50/16's kumho's hopefully the strut won't get in the way, as far as clearance. i didn't even think about the clearance till i was on my way home with them, so has anyone else had fatter meat on the stock rims and had any clearance issues???

i had 225/50/16s on my old sho, and they where big tires. I dont think they will fit the focus? Do they make a 40-45 ?

i can't believe it, i'm still in awe that i was able to tuck those 225/50/16's under the fenders of my focus, up from the stock 205/50/16's. there's MABYE an 1/8-1/4 inch of room between the tire and the rear shock, the fronts are fine though, full turning radius, no rubbing, i'm impressed.
