Matt, what size split Rims are they in the first few pics...........they really look the business - love 'em

[cossie matt]

Re: My Grp4 Escort sprint and track day car.

They were 8.5" fronts and 10" rears Steve. My Bruv owns them now after going through another pair of hands first

Great shots Glen. I have a smile on my face every time I drive mine, and so do the spectators

The tyre bill is the only painful bit of the experience

Re: My Grp4 Escort sprint and track day car.

Matt, 10" rears on Semi-Tubs..........any issued with clearance and wondering what size tyres you used on those ?

So many questions from me............sorry and thanks for taking the time

Re: My Grp4 Escort sprint and track day car.

Hi Steve, Matt never had any clearance issues, I think most of the width was outwards to fill the arches. Those particular wheels only carried slicks, so different sizings. Road wheels were 9's on the rear, and took 215/45-15's I believe. Finding road tyres to fit on the 10's is definitely proving to be a little hard, so may have to go with 225's and stretch them.
