I got 4 (may have 5! lol) mondeo 16" alloy which are exactly the same as the cossie one, except they are not so dished. I personally think they look better as they dont stick out of the arches.
I was looking for some soft-spoke rs 7's 17" so I can fit my bigger brakes.

Escort Cossie rims have been put on most things but the offset is wrong. They are ET25 which sticks the wheel out too far.

He wants to fit something that in most cases cause problems. Do you not think people making him aware of this valid?
Agreed though they do look great

If they were only 7 inches wide and not 8, but still ET25 would they be ok then?

Would still cause problems, but would help. You need a 225 tyre on the cos rims, or they look silly and dont handle right.
If u do fuck all mileage, then fit the escos rims, othewise go for mondeo.
