You probably wouldnt find any mate.

Its just the wrong size wheel for an Escort Cossy.

Escort Cossy and 17" rims just dont add up..........

Its either Standard or 18" 8 or 8 1/2 J rims.

maybe 19's, but not a fan of 19's on escort cossy, look too PIMP.

And I do have 18´s almost ready to fit... just thought how it would look as 17´s is about to be a size from the past.

I think it looks rather good.. not that bad, actually I think it suits the car very well. I guess it is old style Comp. MO´s ? with Toyo´s ??

Thanks

totally wrong.

may look not perfect, but the handling is better and the rotating mass is reduced, what alone makes handling better.

i m running 7,5 x 17 with 245-35-17 tires.

would more likely run 245-40-17 semi slicks, but gonna see

See what your saying... But is an ideal set up for track, as Handling isnt a priority issue on the road. Even on 16's or 18's escort cossie's still handle well enough for road use, so if you are doing constant track days then if 17's handle better, go for it.

But to be honest, its more of a personal opinion.

The deep dish 17" Azevs do look cool tho.
