Another pair of Wings

I couldn’t help myself, a pair of cheap Ewing III’s came up on Yahoo.jp, so I went straight back to Dan to place a bid and ship these puppies over here. They’re nothing drastic, 15×7 +17, to replace the 6.5′s I currently run on the front, so I’ll have 7′s on the front & rear now. I guess it’ll give me something to do over the summer. What do you guys think of the white accents, compared to the way I have mine in black?

    Black with chrome bits not the gold.
    Are they available in 16 x 7?

    Hey Peter, the Ewings come in 16s and 17s but I think the shape of the spokes change a bit. If you do a search for ‘ewing’ on the yahoo.jp auctions, you’ll see there are a few different styles in the ewing family.

    Flip the .65 and mix with the new 7′s to make some crazy wide rims or are they welded

    I love Ewing III, they’re one of my favorite oldschool wheel, specially painted this way.

    I found recently some “copies” in UK : they are custom made, you can choose sizes, bolt pattern, and paint – polished work.

    Moreover, it seems to be great quality wheels : http://www.imagewheels.co.uk/pages/techincal_info.html

    Hi Alex,

    Image sure do make some nice wheels, but the shipping from UK to AUS would be a killer. A friend of mine is acutally looking to import a set of the “RS1 Classic build” for his MK1 Escort.
