I could have bought some ford fitting 13" alleycats for my '96 escrot van, question is, are they all the same, and will they fit over my calipers?, I bought some 4 spokes and they didnt fit, hopefully these will, any thoughts? cheers

all depends on how big your calipers are and the size of your wheels too.
what offset are they?

you need 10mm spacers for caliper clearance, and longer wheel studs, the stock onces arent long enough even without spacers. these were 7j all round.   |

Dez, I'm hoping that as mine are 5.5j and 6j, and have less dish, the offset will be different, enough to clear the calipers. ive looked at a set of steels i have for it, and a picture of the offset on the alleycats, and it looks like hopefully it will be enough, or am i just kidding myself?

They are an awesome wheel whatever car they are on (in my opinion). But, I think they look better with the rim in alloy than black.

Thats how they came to me mate, i have another rim that is how you suggested, and it doesnt quite do the same for me |
