They sit well but think they'll rub under load... I'm sure they're 17x8 et42 with 205/40/17's.
I'm the same, as of yet I have no wheels lined up and from speaking with Billy anything wider than a 7.5" is a no go.
Cheers mate, it's the fronts that are the issue, the rear Sierra axle with standard Cossie wheels is only a few MM wider each side than a standard RS turbo, but the front Escort axle is narrower than the Escort rear by a good 10mm each side. the front Sierra is wider than the rear, so the front will stick out more, I've widened my arches by 25mm all round to help but it's still an issue I need to address. I really want an 8j 215 on the rear with a 7j 205 front.
Does yours run standard width axles front and rear???
