Superlite's aren't my favorite rims either, though you just can't beat the price. And they look great on Eskies.
Geoff, how much were they through Highway Tyres? Is that the shop on Nepean Highway?

I don't know what the 16's would look like on the green one, does anyone have pictures of them on a MK1?
I'll bother getting the tyres and everything for the 16's if they're that much better, as I was thinking of them on the black car when it's done.
Only real reason I was going for the 15's was I know they looked good on it, and I've already got tyres. But whatever, might as well waste my money on something useful.

i like the superlites but i would never put themo on my escort for one reason...they are too common, it seems ever esort u see has them on, altho on this site there is a good mix but u see pics of escorts in england and guess what, wuperlites and there are lots in aus witht them as well...sorry too common altho they do suit the scort's

i wouldnt go that far..... i have seen way more ekkies with simmons and jelly bean mags etc here in SA, i havent seen one escort with supers yet! i think that the ones you see on the internet are chosen because they look so good, and they all just happen to be using supers?....

anyway ima gonna get the 16's[:x)]

cheers

16" Superlites + RS = [:u]

superlights are a good period wheel. if you cant afford minilites you go for the copies! they are good strong cheap wheels that look right. if i could get a set of genuine rs alloys for a mk1 i would have them. but they are too expensive and too hard to get. the 13x7 rebels look good, but again really hard to get. i have had 3 sets of superlights on my current car, starting with 15x8, then 13x7 now 13x6...says something there doesnt it...

I love my rims! they use to be common but have disapeared lately. Good for me

what do you have?

15x7 Performance Challangers with the black on them not the silver ones.

they are another good looking period wheel (esp for a mk2) and 15x7's would look bloody good
