Ahhh don't think they will fit lol because of the offset etc I could be wrong tho I know Morris has a a set of pro race alloys in 18ins and they are fine and his car is very low

Mk1 rs wheels need their offset adjusting.

Can't remember by how much though.

Go for it, i have never seen it on silver

I've thought about getting them and coating them gloss black, but decided to stick with 17s to keep the little bit of driving comfort i have left

They look really good, and like Duff have thought about getting some in black, but seeing that photo they do look a little too big for an ST?

They do rub a bit as standard. Matt's on the white st shown were slightly shaven on the inside to help this.

If you lower it then you will need to change the tyres for smaller band ones to stop the rubbing else it will drive you mad.

I would personally advise to steer away from them for the but it is your choice.
