If your putting the wheels on your Fiesta you will be far better off fitting the Mondeo rims as the Escort Cos uses an ET25 offset which is too much and will affect things for the worse.

4x4 Cossie brakes are tried and tested and will stop the car on it's nose and will also hide nicely behind a 15" rim (the best for handling on the Mk3) The ST170 setup will go behind a 16" rim and works very well. I've had no probs with the ST170 setup on my track car :D
