    i think they are mk2 escort alloys. do the wheelnuts need a flat or tapered washer?

    are they 5.5j or 6j?

    Centre hole is too small for mk1 RS wheels. They take a cap that pushes through from behind and needs a hole of around 70mm. The centre hole is only a few mm away from the wheel nut hole on a mk1 RS wheel

    Maybe but I've never seen a JPS rim that doesn't have the part no cast into the outer face of one of the spokes. As you say, it would help to know if they're 5.5J or 6J.
