G'day i'm keen to put 15 x 7 performance superlites on my mk 2 escort it is lowered 2 inch. Maybe 195 x 50 x 15s, would like to know if they will fit or rub also what offset. cheers.

 

Not sure about the offset, but can tell you I used mk2 xr2 pepperpots on my mk2 escort, this was dropped around 2 1/2" to 3", was loads and loads of room with 205/50X15 on there.

Thats what i used on my Mk2 but had to roll the rear arches, other than that no problems.

 

Thanks for that. Nice looking car you have, do you 195s or 205 will either fit. Do i need to know the offset or will wheel supplier have it sorted, cheers

 

Found some old stuff my ET was 37, 6J rims.
