Hello all,
Can someone please tell me what offset I need with a Rota RB 15" wheel to fit 205x50x15's onto my MK1 escort.
Will they hit the guards?
Cheers

I've just replied to you message, but so everbody can read as well; my 15 x 7 are 15+ offset with 195/50/15 tyres and I had to fold the lip under to get clearance, but now have a good finger width clearance (car currently on jack stands so cannot measure).
So your 205/50/15's I'd say will need the lip folded under as well for clearance.

It has been a few years now and finally getting around to Rota RB wheels.
Has anyone fitted some 15 x 7 RB's and did they clear the rear guards?
Some pics would be great.
Cheers

Not straight forward. Depends on strut kpi. Generally 15x7 ET13.
