As per the normal Escort Cossie rims iirc. Will go on and look greta but the 8J width and ET25 offset means the car will drive like a bucket of arse and you will spend all day with yuor tyres scrubbing against the arches

not sure if above pics are monte, might be some other make.

i've been wanting to do it for a while, but they need 15-20mm machining off the face.

Thats true if you expect to just bolt them on without work done.

I think they look good: give the car a 'hard' look.

I have 8J ET25

when I am alone in the car , no strugling, maybe little but rare. but when other person is in the car

This rim is good for "styling" but if you want drive hard thru corners forget them... I mean on standard S2 arches.

compomotive TH's are the way forward. Gives a very similar look,but you get a better offset like on my old s1
