john 16v

they sit nice aswell, i can't stand it when they sit right in the arches horizontally i mean

ie urs look quite wide what size are they?

i like cozy rims on the back, shame they stick out on the front, you see mondeo 16's but they sit dead narrow on an escort mkV, offset's a bit high an all, imo n e way no offence to n e one who's got em fitted.

erm they are 7J 16 ET35 with 205/45/16 tyres. they sit ok, I saw a grey one at Pod on black MO's, that looked mint, I think maybe when mine is on coilovers it will sit alot better.

Also contemplating a lower cossie spoiler.

Danrs2k, Where in Notts R u?

FPMSL Cossie lower spoilers look nice imo i would like a plastic one tho intstead of fibreglass cus it would be a better fit. Edwalton is on the way to tollerton aint it?

She's back from the dead!!

2 of the original wheels were either buckled or damaged so my dad brought up some saffy rims that were sitting in the shed that were intended for my previous essy- they look a lot better than I thought they would on the RS

Next up: minor body work repairs (rust blisters mostly) and fix driver's recaro and I'm good for the RSOC National Day!
