Default New wheels on my mk4 Escort

Thought I'd fire up a few pics of my Escort after a few changes over the winter.

I used to run 15" Comp MO's in anthracite but when my mate broke his car, I took his 16" versions for mine. They were originally a similar dark colour but I've had them refurb'd in shiny silver with new stickers.

Also fitted an RS Turbo ARB which is thicker than Bonus one with all poly bushes so has tightened handling right up, plus Puma gear linkage which is an awesome upgrade!

Pics below of how she looks now:











When the 16s were dark grey:



And on the grey 15"s



All comments welcome

Looks like a nice tidy example mate. You have any other plans for it?

Cheers for all comments, Glenn the car runs an ST170 lump with throttle bodies so a bit of a sleeper!

Gonna run car like this over the summer and if I still have it come the winter, I'm changing to mk1 Focus RS power

They look good in the silver it shows of the wheel better, but it's all about opinions.
