Nice Mark 1 Escort. You don't happen to have one in the US by any chance.

A few years back, we were producing a wheel that looked similar to the Minilite sport. Sadly, the mold has given up and is beyond repair. I might have a set of 13x7s lying around somewhere in 4x108 pattern that I was saving if and when I decide to get an Escort.

I dont know if Joe (subydude) remembers this but his dad used to drive around in an Escort RS2000 mk.2.

Oh and the closest wheel I have to the "banana" spoke now is the RB in 13x8

yeah I wish. closest I had was a Datsun 510, which I wish I still had.

Heres a site with some great MK1 renders though.

Bump for this thread,

Joe/SD,

can you PM me a price for a set of Porsche Fox wheels in both the standard size and I thought I heard something about you having a wider set available too? Looking for black w/polished lip. Also, how long to get these? Thanks,

~gus

Not my car guys, a good childhood friend's. I think he's gonna get a smaller turbo though, it has an aftermarket big ole turbo, but too much lag for the long 4 speed gears.

Kyle, as for the wheels, it's extremely difficult to find the right tires for them. They're 15's by somethings super wide. I thing the rears are 345's and the fronts are 285's , yeah on 15" wheels. I think

So the with 17's tires would be easier to come by, and still look good. I think that even if the 17's were heavier, there's definitely enough power to warrant the extra weight.
