Default wheels for my escort mk2 rs2000 x pack

ok been looking for wheels for my escort mk2 rs2000 x pack build
i found these but was unsure

then i found these and think they would look the nuts front has 2.5" dish
and rear has 5" dish


only problem is i would have to fit spacers as they are 30mm offset and i need 00 offset
also have to change 4stud to 5stud

18" new style wheel will look a bit strange imo, a 17" cxn would be awsome imo

What size brakes have you got? you dont need any bigger than 330 discs with 4 pots tbh and they fit under 15s,18s look wrong on old escorts plus if you have not had it tubbed you wont be able to lower it much as they will rub like fuk
