How many people have bought new 18" Escos alloys
Have they really taken off, I have only seen them fitted to Marks Concours imperial car and the original red show car??
Is there any more, if not whats putting people off, the finish, the price????

I was going to buy some but was put off by the fact you'd need to run with spacers to clear big brakes. bit of a design flaw imo
plus they're not as dished as the original 16" wheels and look too much like the mondeo versions

Ł1295+vat seems a bit steep for 4 wheels to me but if Paul had not made the mag replicas i think i may have bit the bullet and got some.
As Dave said they defo need spacers though for brakes and just to fill the arch better which aint ideal

i thought they looked nice in 18" the only thing i noticed straight away was the centre caps seemed to stick out slightly and didnt fit quite right,other than that they looked spot on 
be no good for my car though brakes are too big.
ive been thinking of new wheels for a long time now but just havnt seen anything i like,would have to be 19" or 20" and a bit on the bling side though
,anybody got any ideas..?

Mine will be keeping the Genuine Rondell's on it as they are the perfect wheel for the Escort, nothing else even comes close
