The Escort will become a challenge car and/or parts fodder next year so I just need some winter tires with a season of use left or some decent all seasons and it’s easiest to have em already attached to a set of wheels.

Theoretically anything that goes on Miata will work on this car.

I like giving my $$ to GRM folks so  anyone got a set of something they want out of the way?

I’m in SE Michigan.

Bad timing.... I just threw away two sets of snows with great tread, but aged out @ 12 years old. They could have gone another winter.

Belle Tire has Nankang all-seasons in a 195/60/15 for $29 each tomorrow. They have lots of other off-brand sizes available for that kind of price.

I got some 14" blizzak ws70s on 4x100 steelies for winter duty on the civic and crx i might part with cheap, but I am way out in CO. 

Will miata center bore actually fit the ford? Pretty sure honda does.

Yep, I had Miata daisies on my last Escort. I think the center bore is the same since it’s a Mazda chassis.

In other news I found a set of old but probably usable 185/65/14 Altimax Arctics in the garage yesterday. Apparently I need to clean the garage more often... ha.

I got a set of NZO wheels 16x6.5 with 4x100 bolt pattern and 40mm offset. But they are wrapped in some "vintage" Hoosier A7 . Let me know if you're interested for $80.

I'm in Lake Orion, MI.
