Default What model are these alloys from??

First post, I think its allowed to be in the general section

Question is - has anyone seen these wheels before, I'd like to know where they came from as I've never seen them before?




Any answers are greatly appreciated

I'm presuming they are 4 stud so they wouldn't be from a scorpio.

One of many Ford accessory wheels, I'd guess?

From memory, the Ford accessory part no's started with 'X'.... ..... or something, rather than 89FB 1130 etc? I'm sure some of the Ford parts lads on here will know, I've not worked there for years.

They are an RS accessory option wheel for the facelift that give the Scorpio dark headlamp's and different back lamps.

Bit like driving a sofa... Cheap to buy, probably due to them being butters.
