If this is so, why are most of BATs Ford and Ford Motorsport wheels for the Mondeo/Contique 35-38mm (the ones listed)

I don't know what the stock offset is, is 49.5mm the right number? And while we are on this topic, what is a safe offset for aftermarket rims..

thanks

The answer was in an SVT Enthusiast newsletter about a year ago - maybe more. It was under the Q&A section. Anyone archive them? Dion's answer does ring a bell.

1-800-FORD-SVT may know.

Luke may know. You there?
