shaun1988 Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Howdy,My name is Shaun and I was born in 1988 hence the username, I have used this username on forums since i was probably about 13 years old starting off on skating websites then going onto variouse motorbike websites and now here :-)so u got a understanding of my username, i could blabber on about myself but im sure u will find out more and more about me as the time goes on, so ill just get on with pictures of my 1997 1.6 16v Ford Escort Si :-Dhttp://img24.imageshack.us/img24/5685/imag0023bs.jpghttp://img718.imageshack.us/img718/245/imag0024v.jpghttp://img194.imageshack.us/img194/8507/imag0025v.jpgI purchased the car about 3 weeks ago, Ive always wanted a escort like this but didnt think I would ever own one, so im very happy with it does have loads of service history and all its old mot's to back up millage (79k) (last mot had no advisories) when I bought the car i serviced it myself (oil filter, fuel filer, spark plugs, air filter, castrol magnatec oil)the car I think is very tidy for a 14 year old car, it has half leather interior, air conditioning and a sun roof, front electric windows, still has the standard head unit with a 6 disc CD changer in the glove box, and the spare wheel is a alloy the same as what is on the car. as for future plans, ild like the alloys like what i got but 16" and the centre looks kinda pushed back?? and thats about it, as i like the old car standard look.Hope u like it.CheersShaun.

The wheels you have are 16" i believe and if you're asking a question about wheels the same with different offset you may be thinking of EsCos wheels.

Stu Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 There are two different 16" wheels of this design (not including Escort Cosworth wheels). One has a slightly more dished appearance than the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One has a slightly more dished appearance than the other. really? I know there are 2 widths, but thought that the angle of the spokes to the centre was the same. I think the OP may be referring to cossies when he wants the "pushed in" look. All the 16" ronals look good though, only a few cars can pull off the cossie rims without the cossie arches being fitted though IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
