If the stud PCD is not 108mm they wont fit a Cortina or 60's , 70's ford, best place to try would be the Elan owners club site

The Diameter is 13" they may be 12" wide they won't fir on a cortina if they are 12" diameter as they would not clear the brakes possibly unless drum brakes are fitted.

12" dia wheels were fitted to the early mk1 Escorts with drum brakes. Not a lot of use to anyone with disc brakes unfortunately. There were 3 of these floating about on FB the other week, not sure if they sold or not, 3 not really a lot of use lol

they should also fit some late MK1 Escorts with disc brakes (not RS& Mexico etc of course). if i remember correct, MK1 Escort Estates and some XL versions with the stainless steel hubcap had wider 12" wheels, though of course not as wide as Lotus Cortina wheels.
