I have decided to start a thread on my 2014 Focus that I bought in August 2014. This is it stock with a 5% tint in back as 15% in front.

Definitely go check them out! I will tell you from experience though, I had stock 16s and went to 17s. I then wanted 18s within a few months haha

I went from 15's to 16's because I wanted 18's. I still want 18's lol

Yep. I have stock 17s and wouldn't mind going up to 18s if I didn't like the sport wheels so much. Also there's that money thing...

Cause money isn't an issue or needed to pay bills or anything... Sigh... I live vicariously through all these build threads. Can't wait to see what's next!

Not a bad price. I found my ST wheels new with tires and tpms for $500. If you think you are going to absolutlely love those wheels I say get them, if you tjink you are going to still eventaully get 18s hold out.

So many possibilities
My favorite 17" alloys for a Mk3 have always been the OEM ones for the black pack, but it's not likely you'll get as good a deal on them as on that Enkei set. Usually Enkei does a good job of keeping the weight down, too, which would be a big concern for me.
If you don't mind the extra weight and can find a good deal, the 18" ST "snowflakes" always look great, especially in Rado Gray with red calipers.
Thinking of 18s in gray brings a few others to mind, too:
Team Dynamics Motorsport Pro Race 1.2 18x8 on dyn085's 2012 Ti hatchback. (Also available in 17x8)
Bremmer Kraft BR10 18x8s on chadinfocus's 2013 hatchback
I won't even get started on all the choices at Tirerack.com -- I can get lost for hours at that site.
I think those look better than the Konigs you posted in the SGM thread, and $350 for all four sounds too good to be true.What's your take on these in a 17. I can add a red pinstripe.

Oh man decisions decisions haha. Thanks for all the feedback. The tires are almost brand new too. For 500 it's hard not to! Tires are Yokohama 225/50-17, $500/set with the tires already mounted and balanced
Also, thanks for all of the support with the voting for ROTM. Don't forget to vote if you haven't
