Default my escort cosworth WRC "GOLDIELOCKS"*car finished.new update pics on page 10

hey people

i have mounted my new rims today.hope you like it.they are a fookin tight fit..and it did take some mods to get the hubs to fit.and will still take some mods in the arch liners.but i think it looks killer.
sorry for the bad quality on the pictures.something wrong with the settings that i didt see at first.and by the way..i know i need new brakes..and a clean up.brakes will come around later.and clean up soon

enjoy

hey mate
thanx
you take the studs out..and you tighten the centerlock hub with bolts from the back of the hub on the car.as you can see on the pics.
there was some modifications to make it fit..had to make a new nut for the cv joint..cause the standard one is far to big to fit in the hole on the back of the centerlock hub.and i had to cut down on the dept of the center on the hub on the car...dont know if you understand what i mean..but it wasnt a direct bolt on kit.

IMO they are touring car wheels.. I've never seen centre locks 19's on any rally car. Doesn't stop them looking the nuts thou

the dimensions on the wheels are 19 inch.havent measured the width..but i reckon its 8 inches wide.
the tires are 225"35" 19 yokohama parada"s

paul...trust me ..i have checked them.and they are crack free.they are practically mint when it comes to cracks.they havent been repaired..but the paint will need to be done over again to get them mint.but overall condition is very nice.
