Title: Wanted - Cheap 13 inch rims for orange 75' avenger
Post by: Whatsanengine? on January 27, 2015, 12:59:27 PM
Looking for some rims for my recently purchased 75' avenger, no idea what looks good, I'm new here so any help/thoughts are appreciated, under $350 would be good.
Cheers Sven.

Avengers use the the same 4 x 108 wheels as RWD Fords. Here's some cheap Escort mags on TradeMe...

you'll also need 'shank nuts' & washers to run most mags, your lugnuts wont work

I've looked at those hot wires before, too wide I think.. Are those the right shank nuts to buy? Ill need 16 right? Thanks guys.

Are standard avenger rims 5" or 6"? I might need new tires so this is starting to get expensive :(

Normally 4.5"...Alpine had 5"
Standard 165/80-13 tyres are cheap as chips!

Okay some stretching may be required..  I bought the first posted ford escort rims, which happen to be 7 wide.. What am I going to need to do to make them work? I have 165/80/r13 at the moment. Help.
