capri offset pepperpots (13x7), look a bit euroy because of the low ET and width

Their was a mk2 in FastFord on Minilights last month, Grey in colour, the stance on that looked great.

Could try Image wheels for some aftermarket ones.

Aye, sure they were RWD offset, looked awesome, but not the best for handling.

Ring Image if you are feeling flush, they will make 'em to suit. I love mine on the Mk1, but am now terrified of curbs.

if you dont mind me asking what did you pay for your image wheels.was going to go for some revolution 7/13 4 spoke but offset is -6 or -7 dont no if they will stick out way to far

what would a mk2 fiesta look like with escort cosworth 8x16 hoops ??

i ran a xr2 mk2 with capri specials 7x13 and 185/60/13's and the car handled well despite being lowered,that was in 1995 though lol

Dunno about 16's on a Mk2 personally, could look good if lowered right with some arches or something, but i think it might look a bit 4x4 still, but in a bad way.

Andrew- Theres more than a grand in my wheels, but they are billet. They do cheaper but no the less cool as fuck cast ones too, my mate bought a set i was considering for his, and they look awesome!

I took mine to them, as i needed to be sure they didn't foul anywhere and i could still keep the standard bodystyle. My Mk1 has zero arch mods. Could sit i touch lower myabe but its low enough. I like to abuse it, not scrape every speedhump. Can't remember what offset they are, could be 20, but rather than give you duff info. Call 'em, ask for Harry. He has the dimesions of my wheels.

Yeah! The Starmags look awesome. A mate had them on a Black Mk2, said they made it sketchy and rub, but it was low and had a 240bhp lump

I wanted those wheels badly. I personally found them pretty rude and abrupt once i started asking about fitting them and others to a Fiesta

Quality rims though!


Never normally one for posting pics up, but here's mine. Love 'em! But I now fear all curbs and anyone from Liverpool

bythomson- Cheers mate

Ahh, that Mk2 looks much better than i thought it would it that pic. But yep, can't see it handling well and it must rub like fuck.

that xr2 with escort coz wheels looks spot on,or it would deffo do if they was anthracite. i reckon if you banged them on and they caught on anything they wouldn't for long as the fiesta would fall to bits.

that xr2 has been on a good while ,i bet they catch quite abit decided on the 7/13 revolution module for mine just hope they dont stick out to far, ive seen a few on starmags which look the nuts and are on the same offset so fingers crossed
