tom28 Posted October 9, 2009 Report Posted October 9, 2009 love this car seen it on the escort dvd many times looks nice with the wheels you had on it before still good to try different things thoo i say keep it how it was looked lovely
5hane Posted October 9, 2009 Report Posted October 9, 2009 Mate i know they're ronals i just wondered how shane spotted it cuse im a geek nah the spokes go in (concave) where as standard go out (convex) ronals are like mild X-pac's, and GRp1's are like beefed up standard wheels ps. can i have your grill ? thankyouplease pps. and ronals have [RS] stamped into them
5hane Posted October 9, 2009 Report Posted October 9, 2009 ronals have the tyre valve in the centre of the spoke i think as yours are.(I THINK LOL) All RS 4spokes have the tyre valve in the center of the valve even my 14's (O yes, count them )
rsdaz Posted October 10, 2009 Report Posted October 10, 2009 looks good as it is but i do really like them in black especially with the blue rim,i'd do it just to be different and if you dont like it you can always change them back.
willsy Posted October 10, 2009 Report Posted October 10, 2009 Do it Tom. Dare to be really different!
5hane Posted October 10, 2009 Report Posted October 10, 2009 looks good as it is but i do really like them in black especially with the blue rim,i'd do it just to be different and if you dont like it you can always change them back. thats why i recon u should use some standars rs's. It would be a shame to ruin the polished rim, then need them done again !
Tom Posted October 10, 2009 Author Report Posted October 10, 2009 I waited ages for these wheels to come and once i'd fitted them i wanted my 6's back!!! fook it i'll give it a go (once i've decambered the rear springs, raised the trans tunnel, shortened the manifold, adjusted the front springs, re positioned the engine - tis gonna be a busy winter!!!!)
V6MAT Posted October 10, 2009 Report Posted October 10, 2009 has to be done tom, if you dont i will and i dont even have a mk2 escort
Tom Posted October 11, 2009 Author Report Posted October 11, 2009 hmmm quite an even split. . . . you guys are no help!
oliwally Posted October 11, 2009 Report Posted October 11, 2009 Get some 6's under the arches,painted black but have the spokes painted blue. You know how the blue is now but the rest of the wheel black. I like the whees the way they are now though.
V6MAT Posted October 11, 2009 Report Posted October 11, 2009 hmmm quite an even split. . . . you guys are no help! Just do it! You know it will look awesome, put up some more pics and I'll do them so u see it from other angles! I'm gonna paint my fiesta wheels black but maybe not the cortinas
over_head_cam Posted October 11, 2009 Report Posted October 11, 2009 Deffo more agressive looking and like you said, if you get fed up with the colour It can come off
herb capri Posted October 11, 2009 Report Posted October 11, 2009 gotto say dude its coooler in ally! they look too small in black mike
petrolhead Posted October 12, 2009 Report Posted October 12, 2009 I like it, it looks much more potent with the black wheels. Plus its different but still old skool.
herb capri Posted October 13, 2009 Report Posted October 13, 2009 sorry castors come to mind,they look like 12's! and if you dont like it when youve done it think of the work! mike
Admin Mk2Jo Posted October 13, 2009 Admin Report Posted October 13, 2009 I have voted Yes I think the problem with the pic you have put up is that the car looks a little blurry and the wheels crystal clear ... in real life the car is VERY shiny and with black wheels I think it will look good Just my opinion of course I do like black wheels on white and red cars
