@tpvalley have not fitted them (Capri wheels), but I do have another set of old skool BBS wheels with 185/70/13's on the car, and they do not rub. Dash still in car, rest of interior and windows removed, no rubbing, even up front with engine still in car, no rubbing. I have another Fiesta and previous owner had 13's on and he claimed it would rub, maybe he lowered the car?
185/70 tyres have to big a diametre and would look a bit funny, u want 60 profiles.
ford themselves fitted 13" but they were offset further inboard like all front drive wheels, all rear drive wheels stick out further apart from sierra....I think.
shes a 1690cc crossflow, lightened and balenced crank and flywheel, stage 3 head with titan roler rockers and double valve springs, kent 244 cam, twin 40's, 1 of cosworth rocker cover, high capacity oil pump and i can tell that just from looking at it !!!
saw ur pics on google from the ford fair, hopfully i'll be on the scene soon haha need to pass my test 1st tho :') fully sick car, u've inspired me.
