I just before this summer bought and Ford Escort MK4 XR3i and with it i got something that looks like a set of old and unique RS alloys.
They kinda looks like BBS-Alloys but i don't think it is.
They all says: "Made in Germany". and they all got an RS center which has the same number on as the alloys them self.

I was wondering if someone maybe knew about these, me myself has never seen someone like this. I think they are rare things nowadays!

(Coming as soon as I'm home. The internet is really slow at the moment!)
They look like BBS RS rims but they dont got the same "Center".

 

without a picture its like pissing in the wind fella

 

But like Orion 1600e by the sound of it?

 

+1 orion 1600e

 

If so, maybe Ford 'accessory' wheels...

 

or the saph sharktooths

 

these ones?/

 

They look alot like them, but it's not!
Thanks for the Replys.

Here are some pictures:

 

I didn't see your post 1-PD.
But now i did, they are the same!

Is these things worth something? or just standard ford Orion alloys?

 

They dont look the same as PD's posted ones to me....

These ones dont have a lip on the edge of the rim....where the Orion ones do...

These are screaming 'old skool' at me .... like capri or mk1/2 escort

 

i see, these are not the excactly the same...

 

they are rs accessory wheels but the numbers in the face will give us much more information so if you can get a better pic of them please

 

I don't got pictures of that right now.
But the numbers is:
Inside the Center (RS): H87SX1137AA and underneath that it says, 5050859
Inside the alloy: 505065 2 and H87SXEA
Outside: KBA 41334 e32, 213604 with a "c" under.

I was a little wrong about the numbers being the same but they are common, just not excacly the same.

Can anyone tell me if these are worth anything? i've never seen another set of these!
Thanks again for replys

 

cant see them being worth a great deal as they are not the most attractive alloy ford have made, they also look small on rim size

 

...and they look like they've been stored at the bottom of the sea!

 

Were they called "Snowflake"? Also available for Mk2 Fiesta's.

 

From memory, they only tend to have finis codes on the accessory wheels.

 

thing is they are in shocking condition and prob only worth scrap metal pricing

 

Think the only Ford aftermarket wheel that is worth anything is the RS7.

These might be on the rare side but rare doesn't make them valuable if there's no demand.

 

From memory these were an accessory from the late 80's early 90's. I had an early Mk5 Escort 1.6 S (which was on an H plate) and was fitted with a 1.6 CVH injection before the Mk5's were fitted with the Zetec lump, suffice to say it was fitted with these wheels from factory as it was the sportiest Mk5 before the XR3i was introduced. Very retro looking now but an absolute pain to keep clean!

 

defo the RS7 in 17" form and the even rarer 16" version

 

I have ONE 5 stud (granada mk3) diamond cut RS7 spoker in 16 inch.

Just one

Would love another three - my 24v saff has the 5 stud hubs you see

 

I'v got 4 BRAND NEW ones!! Only 14s though
