Default What size

Hi folks

I have a MK4 Escort Cabriolet which has 17" alloys on it. The tyres I need are a pain to get so I was wondering what other wheels would fit the car?

So basically what's the fitment for the MK4 and is there any other wheels that would fit them? ie: Alfa Romeo, BMW etc

Thanks

Out of interest, why do you need a specific tyre?

Not sure what you mean but I don't need a specific tyre! I am after what wheels from other cars or what fitments would fit my Cabriolet, so I can have a more varied choice to look at

You said the tyres you need, I was just wondering what size was so difficult to get?

That is an odd size, but there's plenty of options if you'll order them online and get them fitted locally.

Good tyres there and I did look through http://www.camskill.co.uk/ but then places wanted an extra Ł10-Ł12 per wheel to fit and my budget is very tight
