Schmidt rims & more modifications for Ford Focus RS

Petrolheads wanting a powerful set of wheels in the compact class might well look to the Ford Focus RS. Consistently one of the most potent hot hatches round, only the top AMG, RS and M models from premium providers are likely to offer a little extra. The optics are particularly attractive, with an extrovert, aggressive rally look. The Focus RS – and the second generation in particular, with its inspiring five-cylinder in-line engine – have become a major player. In fact, production volumes had to be raised from the planned 8,000 units to 11,000. However, to maintain an exclusive look, it’s worth making a few additional, individual modifications – just like on this specimen from JMS Fahrzeugteile.

Based in Walddorfhäslach in southern Germany, the specialists at JMS fitted this compact sportster – which left the factory with a striking lime green paint job – with a set of Schmidt Gambit rims featuring a centerlock design that measure in at 8.5×19″. The tires fitted measure 235/35R19. A coilover from ST suspensions lowers the Focus’ chassis accordingly, dropping the front by 45mm and the rear by 35mm. A look under the hood reveals that the 305 hp turbo motor has been upgraded with numerous new silicone hoses.

A range of other components can also be added to round off the modifications: JMS Fahrzeugteile offers kits to optimize exhaust system performance, sports air filters, and much more.
