How to Read Wheel Offset & Measurements
Use these two references before ordering: the left diagram shows where each spec (PCD, center bore, offset, width and diameter) is measured on the wheel; the right diagram shows how positive, zero and negative offset shift the wheel face relative to the hub centerline.
ANKUSI Engineering Expert Advice
Hot hatches and performance compacts are built around quick direction changes, so rotational mass at the wheel has an outsized effect on how the car actually feels to drive. Forging trims that mass while holding the same strength margin as the factory wheel, which is exactly the trade-off this kind of platform rewards.
The Ford Focus RS runs a 5x108 bolt pattern, 63.4mm center bore, and a 19x8.0J, front and rear, wheel from the factory. Our Flush Fitment reference is 19x8.5J ET42, which tucks the tire under the fender lip on a stock-height Ford Focus RS. Our Maximum Aggressive reference is 19x9.0J ET38 — beyond that offset, expect rubbing against the inner fender liner under compression without further trimming.
Ford Focus RS OE Wheel Specs
The 2016 Ford Focus RS (Hatchback) uses a 5x108 bolt pattern with a 63.4mm center bore. Factory wheels are 19x8.0J F/R.
Why the factory spec works for most owners:
- Balances ride comfort with everyday fuel efficiency
- A widely used size in this segment, so tire and wheel availability stays strong
- Keeps unsprung weight low for stable, predictable handling
- Maintains clearance for the factory brake calipers and suspension components
ANKUSI builds these wheels — we are the forging factory, not a reseller. For the Ford Focus RS (2016) we drill the 5x108 pattern and cut the centre bore to 63.4mm on our own CNC line, so the wheel hub-centres on the car with no spacer rings, in whatever diameter, width and offset you specify.

Offset & Backspacing Reference
Backspacing is calculated as wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance):
- OE: 19x8.0J ET50 → ~6.47″ backspacing
- Flush: 19x8.5J ET42 → ~6.4″ backspacing
- Max: 19x9.0J ET38 → ~6.5″ backspacing
Want to check a different width or offset before you order? Use our Offset & Backspacing Calculator to solve the numbers yourself, or looking for your exact Ford spec, or want a wheel built to a custom offset for your Ford Focus RS? Contact ANKUSI with your bolt pattern and offset target and we will confirm the correct forged wheel spec for your build.
Frequently Asked Questions
What bolt pattern (PCD) does the Ford Focus RS use?
The 2016 Ford Focus RS uses a 5x108 bolt pattern.
How many lug bolts does the Ford Focus RS use?
The Ford Focus RS uses a 5-lug bolt pattern (5x108), so you need a 5-lug forged wheel to bolt straight on.
What is the center bore size on the Ford Focus RS?
The Ford Focus RS's center bore is 63.4mm. If an aftermarket wheel has a larger center bore than this, hub-centric rings are recommended so the wheel centers on the hub itself rather than relying on the lug bolts alone.
What size are the factory (stock) wheels on the Ford Focus RS?
Factory wheels on the Ford Focus RS are 19x8.0J F/R.
What is the biggest wheel size I can fit on my Ford Focus RS without rubbing?
The most aggressive fitment we recommend without fender work is 19x9.0J at ET38 offset. Going beyond this typically causes rubbing under compression unless you roll the fenders or add camber correction.
What does a flush wheel fitment look like on the Ford Focus RS?
For a flush look with minimal to no rubbing, we recommend 19x8.5J at ET42 offset as a starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Ford Focus RS.
Do I need wheel spacers for my Ford Focus RS?
No. ANKUSI forges each wheel to your exact target offset, including the flush or max specs above, so you get the correct fitment without stacking spacers. Spacers are typically only used to push out an existing OE-offset wheel without replacing it, which isn't necessary when you're ordering a custom-offset forged wheel.
How do I calculate wheel backspacing for my Ford Focus RS?
Backspacing (in inches) = wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance). For example, the flush spec above works out to roughly 6.4" of backspacing.
What's the difference between wheel offset and backspacing?
Offset is the distance in millimeters from the wheel's true centerline to its mounting face (positive offset pulls the wheel in, negative pushes it out). Backspacing is the distance in inches from the mounting face to the back edge of the wheel barrel. They describe the same fitment from two different reference points, which is why ANKUSI lists both above — some shops and tuning guides quote offset, others quote backspacing.
Can I run staggered wheels (different sizes front and rear) on my Ford Focus RS?
The Ford Focus RS runs the same wheel size front and rear from the factory, so staggered fitment is not required. ANKUSI can still forge a staggered set (wider rear) on request if you want a more aggressive stance.
Wheel Installation Reference: Torque, Thread & TPMS
Thread & Fastener: M12x1.5, conical-seat lug nut.
Factory Torque Spec: 136 Nm (100 ft-lb). Covers most Ford passenger cars and crossovers (Fusion, Focus, Escape and similar) on M12x1.5 studs.
TPMS: TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) has been federally mandated on all new light vehicles sold in the US since the 2008 model year. If your wheels use OE-style sensors, have them transferred or cloned to the new wheels at installation.
Tire Pressure: Always set tire pressure to the value on your vehicle's tire placard (driver's doorjamb or glovebox), not the max PSI printed on the tire sidewall — this is trim- and tire-size-specific and stays the same reference point when you switch to a different wheel and tire combination.
Reference data compiled from published OEM service specifications and cross-checked against independent repair sources; always confirm against your owner's manual or door-jamb placard before installation.
