Tyre and Rim Sizes for an Escort

This list is compiled from a Tyre Fitter/ Wheel Aligner trade manual. Selected sizes are close to original Escort sizes and roughly kept to RTA allowable limits. Widths go well beyond RTA limits. The notes summarise the gist of RTA requirements and indicate when engineer certification is required.

All dimensions for tyres are nominal only and will vary with manufacturer's mould and tread patterns.

Speedo error is 100 with original fitment so the value given will be the true road speed when the speedo reads 100. Again this is nominal considering tread wear, tyre pressure as well as individual tyre size.

Many thanks to John Wilkes for compiling this information
