Default Focus limitations: is it because Australia is too far?

I was just searching the online Focus images and I saw this beauty of a sedan. The thing that gets me is why are we limited to 3 variants of alloy wheels in Australia? Look the wheels on the car below...beautiful! I wish I could option them for my sedan!

You'd be better off getting aftermarket. Ford want a grand for just the Zetec wheels with no tyres.

Aftermarket for that amount you can get a nice rance of 17" wheels with tyres.

The only thing is you'll need to get them drilled to suit your stud pattern.

aftermarket wheels all the way. Ford seems to think their rims are made of gold and charge accordingly
