Default escort rim offsets

I am looking at purchasing a set of rims for a mk1 escort but i'm unsure of maximum offset or correct offset to run.
Could I get away with ET6 14x7 under a standard wheel arch ?
Thanks in advance.
Aaron

Default Re: escort rim offsets

i have a MK2, and i think the offset range is from +12 to +24.
pretty sure the MK1 would be similar.
