M4TT Posted March 14, 2004 Share Posted March 14, 2004 17" with a 40mm drop is the best easy one, 18's a bit of arch work on the rear maybe some rumage on the fronts whe non full lock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cossie Dave Posted March 14, 2004 Share Posted March 14, 2004 Easily get away with a 60mm drop on some 215/35/18 wheels, that's with 5 people in the car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K3V HA Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 You got any pics of your car Dave? Will be getting 18's soon, and would nt mind lookin at what they like! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cossie Dave Posted March 18, 2004 Share Posted March 18, 2004 Not got any pictures on at the minute, they don't even look that big but still look much bigger than my 17's. I don't know if you've seen them before, they're called Kei velocity I think, it's the company that made those arrospeed wheels last year that everyone had. They're the smoked chrome colour with the polished rim but multispokes instead of 5 spokes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cossie Dave Posted March 18, 2004 Share Posted March 18, 2004 I got them from a place called EVO in Peterlee, County Durham for £860 with 215/35/18 NANKANG tyres, that was fitted as well which although it wouldn't normally be hard is a nightmare on my car trying to get a jack under Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been offered a great deal on some of them 205/40/17, and i've read some reviews on the net, very mixed, some great, some terrible, so what do u think of 'em?

Cossie Dave Posted March 20, 2004 Share Posted March 20, 2004 They're fine, I've tried a canny few tyres and I would say that overall I prefer them to TOYO Proxes T1-S, and lets face it, an escort doesn't exactly need the best tyres. If you want good tyres then go for Goodyear Eagle F1's or Michelin Pilot's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
