Default MK1 Escort on 15inch steels

Hey fealls just wondering if anyone can help , im thinking of putting some mondeo 15 inch steels on the mk1 and not really sure if they'll fit . I know that a 15 inch rim will fit under the arches just not sure if the mondeo ones will fit ie offset etc .

Anyone done this ?

Wrong offset the fronts will hit the springs rears will fit on.You need to have the centres removed and turned around and rewelded to get the offset [or near as it can be]

SAAB 9000 series steel wheels offset ET33 will fit fine no wories.
