    i would guess it's because he doesn't have that many 4 lug choices...

    what's the bolt paturn on the 4 lugs ? 4X108 ? if it's that all the focus wheels will fit all the xr4ti will fit as well

    xr stock wheels are 14" focus will go from 14" all the way to 19"

    Yeah there are about 60 different rims listed for a 4x114.3 none for a 114
    but you are missing the point.

    The starting for any of the wheels on that site are over $100 in comparison to the $50 price tag he is looking at. I know if I had a 4 lug that needed rims I would find the cheapest ones I could so I would not loose too much when I upgraded to disk brakes and a 5 lug rear end

    The wheels on the back of my car are still 4 lug. Swapping the 5 lug axle in this Spring. The 4 lugs on it are 15" x 6.5 or 7 I cant remember. The 14" 4lug center is welded to an Oldsmobile outer I think. You may want to PM SVOPRO. He may have welded up the wheels that are on my car. They will be for sale when I swap to the 5 lug.

    The wheel you are thinking of was a 5 lug Ford center welded to a Chevy van 15 inch outer. I cant remember where I saw that write up.

    i dont think thats it. this was done on a black maverick and it has dog dish centers. it was just the lug pattern swapped i believe. idk i may be wrong. yeah im lookin for something cheap.
