As my man in Germany has sent me my monies.
Any ideas for what will suit it?
I've got £820 to spend with tyres and they must be 16s, SOME 15s will clear the brakes, but the car will look odd on 15s anyway IMO, need to be able to buy them new too, not some random ones from ebay which are scuffed to fuck and bent like a banana.
Here's the car.

(on the left )

(second from the right)
Pick me some wheels.
kthnx.

Yeah, Compomotive pissed me off today by making me have to measure the brake calipers to see if the clearance is there.
They wouldn't just tell me the figures, they wanted me to measure them, then send them to them to cross match them, then wait for them to respond.
Sooo..... I'm annoyed with them 
Not sure about the 16" MOs anyway, they're all 6 spoke unless they're rather wide 
If I could get 5 spoke 16s in ET38 brand new, I'd have a set just like that, but I'm really not sure about the 6 spokes

Too wide, I've got 7.5" wheels on there now and they catch, proper Escort Cosworth wheels are 8" wide so they'd be worse.
