not on now, they were on a cossie but should be the same with the escort as there is loads of clearance for the arch on these as well.

you may get away with 3mm spacers, you could get custom bells made to space out by the exact amount and this would be far better to do as i dont personally like using spacers.

how much you found the rondells for?
