I couldn't swap back to the standard offset wheels to be honest as I love the way the car sits on these wheels especialy with the series 1 turbo arches on the car.
I'm sure I can sort sumat out for it to be honest its just that I wanted some opinios on the subject before I go out and start studying various other fords for parts comparisons.
