Escort cos are ET25, so ET 20's will stick out 5mm more (Depending on the overall width of the rim of course)

Personally i wouldnt bother, it will handle like shit

them rims must have caused some fairly substantial damage and/or rot in the arches though surely

my TSW's caught the back arches really bad and they are Ford fitment?!
