Default FORD original diamond cut whells

Maybe some one can tell more about them. I see them silver, also chrome plated.

Do they differ?

How much one wheel can weight? Are they light or heavy Items?

Are they strong?

As I understand they are 8J? I mean 17" ones...

I am thinking to buy such on my sapphire 2wd. Will they fit and don't hit arches?

Thank you for help.

Are these diamond cuts? rs7 or rl7?

They are definately RS chromed softspokes and make sure the chrome is ok because it usually has started peeling off by now.Lots of people have painted them. They will fit on the back of a 2wd Saph no probs but on the front you will need 5mm spacers and even then you might have to dress the raised lettering back on the standard calipers. Hope that helps

Are they heavy? strong? maybe someone has these wheels and can tell the feelings?

Thank you.
