mk2 stu Posted December 11, 2006 Author Report Posted December 11, 2006 1. posse = 7x 13 175/50 2. m-bird = 7x13 175/50 3. bobmk1 =7x13 175/50 4. fieldstvl = 7x13 175/50 5. mark2mark = 7x13 175/50 (0 offset) 6. retro_car_man = 7x13 175/50 (0 offset) subject to price 7. S2 Dee = 7 x 13 185/60 to fit MK I Esscy (0 offset?) + 15 x 7 195/50 if price is good. 8.Ian1300 = 7x13 175/50 (mk2 escort) 9.mk2 stu = 7x13 175/50 superlites for mk2 escy Come on i did start this bloody thread!!! you know i want some!
you'll get 10s on that Posted December 11, 2006 Report Posted December 11, 2006 Hi Guys....re Superlites...aren't they et -7 and that's why they're such a problem on Mk1s and Angleboxes. If they are infact ET7 then they are ideal for these. Compo might be interested in a group buy.....i'll check.....much better in terms of strength and durability......and not so tarty (IMHO) compared to those polished rims and there made in England rather than Australia ro China.
tim Posted December 11, 2006 Report Posted December 11, 2006 i thought they were -10 on 7s and 0 on 6s
you'll get 10s on that Posted December 11, 2006 Report Posted December 11, 2006 my listings show the Superlite 7x13 at ET-6 (Because of the wheel's Australia origin I imagine they designed these for rwd Toyota AE86) Their 6x13 is listed as et24. The offset for an Anglia needs to be ET6 as this will allow the fitment of 175/50 without any bodymods......even the usual front wing mod by the valance. Using this offset they will also (just) fit under the rearof a MK1 'Scort but it is tight.On the Mk2 (Scort) its not a problem.

Jelly = 7x13 175/50 superlites for mk1 ezzy Is it possible to get charcoal coloured ones?
J_mk1 Posted December 11, 2006 Report Posted December 11, 2006 Do 7x13 175/50 fit standard arches (lowered 2inch) on a mk1 escy???
you'll get 10s on that Posted December 11, 2006 Report Posted December 11, 2006 All down to interpretation of "fit" 7" wheels with an offset of ET6 are (IMHO) the MAX on a MK1 and that may need a bit of dressing on the rear arches. Real issue is that Superlites are ET-7 and therefore stick out a further 13mm (that's half an inch in old money)
bobmk1 Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 can you take me off the list please posse change of plans
