Anyone seen these before? Presume they're just RS accessory wheels and not fitted to any particular car, but thought there may be someone on here who knows better??

They're 6x15s and ET40 and aren't XR4x4 ones before anyone says so, as there's no 'lip' around the edge like normal 7-spokes

 

Anyone got set rs7 spokes for sale ? 16 or 17

 

Ive never seen an accessory RS 7 spoke wheel with a flat edge like that to the face before...

Even the 13" 7 spoke as fitted as accessories to mk2 xr2's had a lip!!

Is it possible they have been refurbed and had the lip machined off???

Those style of RS accessory wheels were available in quite a few sizes and offsets back in the day so who knows?

 

Was considering that, as have seen diamond cut ones where they've machined the lip off - It's just that the finish looks very 'factory', and not refurbed.

Edit: They're stamped as being made in 1995 too.

 

very wired.

 

I've got a set of these. Got them off someone from another forum and definitly hadn't been refurb'd or anything

 

They're not part of the 'RS' kit for the Mk1 mondeo are they ?

 

Look very Capri like to me?

 

Mondeo upgrade

 

there is nothing special about that. Ive got them under my estate.but then with the "edge"

 

I know they're not special, just wondered if they were RS accessory wheels, or an option for a particular car.

 

Just an accessory.

 

ford have been doing accesory wheels like that for years my m8 had some similar ones on his mk1 orion way back in 1989 they were 15" IIRC

steve

 

they were fitted to the Hendy Ford RSi Mondeo (Citrine yellow) cars i believe

 

As per my original post - I assumed they are an accessory wheel - I just wanted to check before putting anything into print.

(You fixed the Mondeo's misfire yet?)

 

my dad bought a brand new mk1 mondeo si with all the rs upgrade kit on, and that came with 16" versions of these, not 15s like these, and looking at a pic of it on the day of purchase, the wheels have the lip too

god i loved that car as a kid

 

They look like capri brooklands wheels with a different center cap.

 

yes Dan I have it was the bloody plug leads!!
for some reason on the mondeo if they have started breaking down then they fail at low rpm high torque situations which is what mine did, I put some new ones on and it's perfect again

steve

 

they look like sierra asscesory rims, but with the date stamped 'd got with mk1 mondeo

althoguh i always thought they were 7 x15's

 

Cool, mine's doing exactly the same thing. Have got a set of Magnecor ones on order so hopefully mine will be fixed shortly too!

 

should cure is Dan, I changed them after reading about it being the probable cause on the st owners club forum. presume yours does it from 1.5k rpm to about 3.5k. On mine as soon as the secondries opened it was fine that threw me off the scent for a while as I expected it to missfire at high rpm with duff plug leads..not so!

steve

 

leads are the first thing to change when they start to misfire, but apparently ford leads are better and less prone to having these problems that aftermarket ones

time for a test?

 

yea quite sure these are off a mondeo, i think you can still buy these froom ford am my m8 brought some about a year ago

 

Had them on my 1.6 Sport fiesta with the rare RS (none turbo) body kit looked awsome

 

They are odd. Even the capri 2.8i ones have a lip. The brooklands were a 16 or 17 i think.

 

The one's on me fezza mk 3 were 13" EXACTLY like them and the car was never modified etc it was from ford like that

 

What model Fiesta?

 

I've got those exact ones on my mk2 mondeo except i think they're et42!

 

iv got these in diamond cut on my series 1, they came on the car when i bought it they actually dont look 2 bad its just that there not wide enuff so dont fill the arches.

 

rare in 6j, usually 7 and a hassle on most cars, i had 7j jobs on an old escort estate

 

i have them in 7j on my estate to.




This was before i got the car lowered tho.

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^ they look like capri brooklands wheels to me.

 

but they've got the lip on them

 

+1 on brooklands

 

Cool estate all the same.

 

Yep you lot where right. But i had the other set on my xr2
