I have a 77 Mk 2 Escort.
At the moment I have origional wheels and hubcaps but would like to get some wider wheels that look shmik without looking to overdone. I would like to keep 13s maybe 14' but not sure what type i should get, no a huge fan of minilites or superlites or jellybeans, any other suggestions? Thanks Guys |

The Ghia alloys aren't bad. I put them on mine when I resprayed it and cleaned it up. they can be polished too. not sure the Cortina 14" ones fit, but definitely the 13's from Escorts do.. I had 185/65's on them.

I am a fan of minilites....
As an alternative I use to love Dragway 4 spokes... |

I saw a set of the dragway 4 spoke and they look pretty sweet. But I missed the sniper war on eBay. Anyone know where I can obtain a set of dragways?
