they may look a little small, but people rarely complain the standard wheels look small, and they are only 16's

they are the right offset etc and if you can get em cheap then go for it

I think those rims are

But not on an Escort Cos...

Standards are half an inch wider with the same offset, so they will be tucked further in than OE wheels, looking like poor 18" Rondell imitations...
But not as big.

Each to their own though

You've got a good point there...I hate spacers, so I think save the money and buy 18's??????


Btw.

ATS Wolf wheels are not Rondell imitations, the Wolf-wheels and Rondell wheels are one of the best wheels for an EsCos IMO.

ATS wheels from Wolf Racing, and Rondell from Engels-Renntechnik

All i meant was it may look like you're trying to acheive that Rondell look, as the wheels are quite similar...
Not that the Wolf wheels are Rondell copies.

18's would look much better, in my opinion.

What about Compomotive TH's? I think they look great on the Escort Cos
