Matt...Don't get me wrong mate but they're not Scorpio style wheels, they'll look way thinner than the 225's fitted too. The stock 7's or 12's rule on the Ultima Cool.
 
Your decision though, good luck with them Wink

ill take a few pics at diffrent angles, but i'll have to do it somewhere quiet, as they still might end up a an xmas pressie for me dad so i cant let him see them untill ive (and you lot) have decided if they suit the scorpio's shape or not lol.
 
they have the 215 tyre fitted atm so i would need to re boot them if they stay with the scorpio.
 
i could of had them for £102 but some 0 rated newbie decided to have a bit with 2 mins to go, scared him off tho   Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin

It does happen quite a lot Matt. If you go onto the message boards there are numerous items on "shill bidding" there are even programmes available which will track potential sellers with buyers bidding on their items to see if they are getting the same people to bump up their prices!

Those are nice but I wouldn\'t swap you Wink
 
I just cant see past the 12 spokes, i\'ve never really seen any other wheels on a Scorpio that really look as good and suit the car

Agree Nice but they look too small on the Scorp, you can't beat the RS 7's or the 12's on the bugeye, never seen a set of aftermarket or non standard rims which do it justice as well Wink
 
Would look nice on the Cougar though Cheesy
