so you could just take these to a refurbist and save yourself £250 if you actyually wanted white wheels...
That's kind of misunderstanding the whole ethos of a large section of the Fast Ford crowd isn't it? Many owners (and future buyers) will want proof that they were white from the factory.i like fast fords (often) but i don;t get 'the scene'. i don't understand the 'every other escort cosseh has rondell wheels' and i certainly don't get the magpie engine bays..
so you're right. i probably don;t get why someone would pay £500 so that you can have exactly the same wheels in a different colour just to satisfy Jason the local area coordinator of the RSOC
(paying a monkey for some really light 18"s. well, i could understand that)

Translation: Demand has actually been rather tepid and we haven't sold quite as many as we'd hoped and so now we're trying some pathetically desperate measures to try and shift the last of the damn things without actually spending any more money so we've raided the stationary cupboard for all the whiteout we could find and painted up some wheels.
If there are still some left by next tuesday then we'll break out the most desperate of measures and create a pathetic limited edition distinguished mainly by vinyl stickers proclaiming that it's a special edition written in comic sans or some other cheesy font and maybe some free floor mats or something.

500 for a set of 19" alloys from a main dealer?
That sounds cheap doesn't it?
Without tyres of course!
More likely an upgrade option. That sounds cheap doesn't it?
Without tyres of course!
IMO they look s

In fact, white wheels have been an option for the RS on the continent since launch. This is just an exercise of reducing stock, I should think.
When looking at one of mine the other week, the inside of the wheels (manufactured by Ronal) have part numbers for both white and silver versions.
