Quite possibly THE best wheels you can buy for the WRC Escort Cossie.

It's nearly there - all that's missing is some door stack stickers

Anyway, thought you were selling up?

rab, 8.5 i think......


Rich, you say that.. im actually feeling the urge for a few graphics you know!

Phil.. no way am i putting oz ROAD supertourismo's on the escos. they are almost as common as rondells and azev A's!

now if you had the PROPER magnesuim OZ rims in 18" (same design as the monte 16" wheel )

then id agree with you! but not on those rims!

They look much wider than the Mo's for sure. And they definately look tough. I reckon they'd look good in a dark colour though, black maybe?

And the OZ Magnesium 10x18 Tarmac rally jobbies would just be the shit

Nice wheels - a firm motorsport favourite

Looks like you will be needing longer studs though and a few more nuts

Im more interested in the tyres - what are they Dave ?

nikki, you'd best keep an eye on the resto thread then aye ?

Nuts, long studs are already on.. pic is quite deceiving i guess... but you're right on the nuts.. grp 'a' ? sleeved ones.. ive ordered a load from steve scott... that was over a week ago and they still havent arrived

tyres are michelin slicks.. thats all I can say at the mo without going to have a look at them

cheers adam
