Hi guys

Ive seen some TD 1.2s for sale on a forum which are Ford fitment.

How much aggro is it gunna be, or how much will it cost to fit mine?

Spacers, spidget rings, extended wheel bolts, etc.

Or should I hold out for a correct set? These are £125 no tyres BTW.

if off something like a fiesta then just a case of 20 or 25mm wheel spacers and the correct size spigot rings.

hubcentric spacers are around £40 - £50 per pair and if you find the right ones you will get correct bolts for them.

yes, rwd stuff tends to be lower offsets so using hubcentric spacers to correct the smaller centrebore wont work, you'd need to get them machined.

I had some compomotives off a RWD Escort, because they were 8" wide 15"s they were ET0 :fcuk:
