Mark,
They remind me of the BBS CH's i had on my Evo



Want something motorsporty ( rl7's,mo's,rondells etc) but not blingy!

Also want something to clear my AP 362's and not be common???

Think i'll be sticking with my Rondells but had them on last 3 Escy's now

Karl, Martoon sells them, i believe they are the CXN's.

think they looked perfect on Porkies 3dr but unsure about them on the escort - although they dont look terrible on the escort they just dont look amazing like your Ronnies.

ill try and dig up some pics later for you, unless Neil beats me to it

look crap on the escos mate. Must admit when I changed from rondells to the superleggs I thought it finished my car off a treat. 19's really finish off the escos well. How about the new ultraleggs, they are even lighter that the super's i'm led to believe. You'll need spacers though

Have you seen Ultraleggeras in 8x19 4x108 though? Have to agree 19s do look great on the escos
