Default Pug 306 wheels, fit an escort??

Im pretty sure that wheels that fit on the pug 306 will fit a mk6 escort? The guy with the pug was using spacers, so im hoping that they will be ford offset too??

Could anyone confirm this?

Measure the spacer - if they are around 15mm then theres a good chance that the original offset is indeed ford fitment.

as above spigot rings are needed to get the wheel sat correctly. and on a ford they will stick out slightly....

Wrong Tiff mate - Ford to Pug do go but with spacers...

Ford offset is around ET35 - Pug offset is around ET20 so will fit with the use of spacers!!!

Pug to Ford will be more of an issue due to the offset making the wheels sit out more - unless you are lucky enough to find a set that have had spacers fitted like he has!!

i dont think you can fit ford to pug as the centre spigot is too small

Would of course depend if they were aftermarket wheels that were likely to have a larger spigot size & not standard Ford jobbies - although theres nothing stopping you having them bored out!!
