short answer yes, long answer no. they'll fit... but you will have some pretty severe arch problems. the fronts should be alright on standard suspension, but the rears will hit the arches if you have any load in the back.

Yep, ask if he'll do a set of 4 x 7j instead of 2 x 7j and 2 x 8j.
Nice wheels but they may not be the best finish.....????
Or i may be wrong and they might be bloody brilliant. I tend to go with the old "ya gets what ya pays for" belief.

they look delicious, but i'm a bit skeptical of copies and how long they will look good for - i've seen quite a few wheels that have had the clear coat bubble and chip and then they look a right mess..

ill be getting a set of these as soon as i can.

but im running a non body kitted mk2, with weitec dampers. im expecting to have 20mm poke up front and 40mm out back, so the arches will be getting rolled and puled to suit. or possibly even cut out and mk1 escort bubble arches welded in place. when i have them fitted i'll post a pic up but it'll be a couple of months probs.
