Dad has a set of 4 spoke rs rims on his mk2 escort and wants to go for a bigger sized rim. There a 13 inch rim and I love the look of them. What I want to know is how would I be able to get them to fit. I don't want paragraphs telling me what offset they are or all this jibber jabber, all I want to know is if I use hub adaptors, lathe were the centre caps go or what? And yes I do realise 13 is tiny but I want that low and slow look

Think Uz is the best person to help you out with the answer, since he's the resident wheel w**re.
RS alloys are great looking wheels, too many of them were ruined by the white paint though.

Depending on what 206 youve got the 13" RS wheels wont fit over the brakes. Your brake setup needs to be a 247mm setup for them to fit and even then itll be extremely extremely touch and go.

Also if your interested all i needed was 2 of the spacers so you can have the other two for £40.00 posted?
You will need the bolts to bolt them on or i have some car bolts with the heads cut off heads
you can have for free.
cheers
