Default Track Width

Where is this measurement taken from? Going by what you show the RS's track is only 20mm larger front and 27mm increase in the rear. I believe in many publications that Ford states...feel free to correct me if its wrong...that the Focus RS has a increased track width of 65mm over stock! As I asked in the beginning were are you figures measured at?
The measurement of 1514mm is taken from the center<->center of rim/tire.
