ive got a set of escos's fitted to my escort estate and still havnt replaced the 195/40r16 tyres that came with them.

as you can imagine the stretch is stupid -



now ive currently got falken ze912's fitted that do perform quite well apart from when the roads are remotley wet, when its flogging it down there not that bad


now im thinking about going 205/45r16's but what others do you have fitted? any piccies on the stretch? how thick are the rim protectors?

i do mainly motorway miles in it so track tyres like t1r's etc arnt nessacery.

was going to go either

falken 912

hancook v12

conti sport2

but i need some pics of what these would look like from the point of view against the wheel rim.

cheers

 

I have found in the past 205s will scrub due to the wrong offset of escos wheels on normal fwd escorts

 

My arches are rolled steve so that shouldnt be a problem.

I had 225's on my old van and they only scrubbed a bit.
