hmmm prefer standards to be honest i'm afraid sorry man is it lowered?

looks a clean one tho!!

 

[Astroid]

No mate shes not lowered just gots koni's in her, Don't know mate really like the RS 7's. Cheers mate only 71k miles on her

 

[Lyons]

Think i prefer the originals too, they just look a wee bit big.

Stunning wheels none the less, my favourite RS wheels by far. Good choice.

 

[I R HillBilly]

they are nice. but imo just a wee bit to big for the escort.

 

[Astroid]

CheeRS lads, i'll get her lowered then she'll look the job, monster truck stylee at the mo, i need the 17's to fit the wilwoods

 

[Graham]

too big paul 16" maximum

 

[m00k]

71k's a nice find alrite, remember i got the cav t she had 78k i was well chuffed, same mileage was on my gsi astra aswell actually lol

bit lower may well make a huge difference but hard to beat a mint original one wi original rims etc!!

 

[Lyons]

CheeRS lads

Ahh, i see what you've done there!

Yo Graham, 16's would be to close for the 4 pots had to go for the 17's bai, Copied arthur

Will look a lot better when lowered, bit of 4x4 atm!

Aye mate she had 66k when i bought it, the man who owned it bought it brand new and had it for 15 years, needed a fare few £ spent on her but i'm gettin there she's nearly finished, Hard to beat the old GSI's becoming rare now

Ford are the same, long story cut short, was in ford lookin shorter wheel bolts the guy looked at me like i was casper, he never knew the rs had bolts he thought they all had nuts, i had to go out to the car and take one off to show him there all the same when your gettin parts for old cars

[Astroid]

Thats class lookin, top job mate, can you photo shop it clean lol

 

[skiman_1]

You should have got the diamond cut rs 7 spokes as they look far better on the RS TURBOS than the soft cut!

 

[simon4563]

[Astroid]

Shes stinkin need a bit of good weather to get her polished up, how much do you think you lowered that mate about 40mm??
