Torn between the two , Rondells/Engells are what Escorts should have come with as standard , always will be a timeless classic . Id love to have seen them powder coating anthracite or satin black .

Comps do look nice too but really better suited to more track orientated cars ..... IMO

Infact I`d love to see a set of Rondells in satin with the centres removed and the locking lip machined away so they look more " competition " ....... That would be a good looking wheel !

YIp fire down to mine and we will switch one side over Stu, but dont think my wheels will be going anywhere I hated them when I got the car but they have grew on me now. Not sure if the MO's will clear my brakes anyway

Tough call Stuarty boy... I think the Rondells look mint, but Comps look good too cause they're the proper width and have a slight dish to them rather than the normal ones with spokes to the edge.


Cheers,
Grant

Looks nice on either. I voted Rondell's as imo they are a timeless classic and hard beaten on an Escos.

Keep the Rondells on they look far better, I think it needs lowering a little tad on the rear.
