some wheels i have been playing around with!!!
all of the inserts can be mounted in either the deep dish or normal wheel.
loads more to do yet!!!!!
subaru, lancia delta rims:
oz , ferrari 5 spokes:
comps, porsche rims.
they will all fit the 17" alloy rims when they are finished.

Got the Rs 4 spokes fitted on my Mk 1 Escort Twin Cam & Mk 1 Escort Avo,i am well chuffed with how they look-thanks to escortnutter for sorting them out & for the advice on fitting,i drilled holes in the alloy part off centre & just the right size to fit the hubs without the need to glue them.Heres a few pics i took,also put on the bib spoilers,just stuck on with bluetac at the mo.
Note the Twin Cam is without head lights & grill as im swapping them for the round ones.
The Avo
Hope you all like

[quote=TIGER ST;4723950]i love the look of these wheels i have set for my escort but torn between the mk2 & the mk1 escorts[/quote
I was going to put one set on the avo & the others on a Mk 2 but thought they would look so much better on the Mk 1

glad your all happy with the quality of them aswell as i know how good some of the german one's are but i honestly do think ours are better quality and cheaper!!
who said it was cheaper to buy abroad
model motorvation will change that!!!

Wow,how nice is that when i manage to get another Mk 1 Escort id like to use a set of the alloy wheels i got from you & use the chrome centres from my old twincam wheels inserted in the middle to give a deep dish look.
