16 inch Sportka wheels, do they fit? ( escort mk4 or mk5 Fiesta )
Hello,
I was wondering if anyone here knows if the 16 inch rims from the Sport and Streetka fit the escort mk4 and the Fiesta mk5 zetec-S.
I thought i once saw them in black on a mk4 escort over here...
these are the ones:

Yes they do mate. same stud patterne etc etc probablt want to run either 195/45/16 or 205/45/ tyres on the escort
Here is the comparison
Specification Sidewall Radius Diameter Circumference Revs/Mile Difference
185/60-14 4.4in 11.4in 22.7in 71.4in 887 0.0%
195/45-16 3.5in 11.5in 22.9in 72.0in 880 0.7%

How much lowering did you use then? Can't you prevent rubbing if you don't lower it more than standard?

didn't lower it at all, the rear spring cups are lower than the front ones so it rubs there
plus the offset is different so they sit a lot futher in at the front as well and it fouls on loads of stuff when rubbing
ok, so they aren't the same wheels, but they have that same 52.5 offset that most of the later fords have
