17x7.5,, has a made in england stamping but no definitive stampings for pcd, offset or centerbore. Look like RS Cosworth wheels but arent. Has a retaining bolt hole for the flat bolt hole cover (which I'll post in another comment, which matches some 90s ford wheels) owner says they came off a Peugeot but my fellow french car enthusiasts say they definitely arent an OE Peugeot wheel.

That's not true. Basically every pre 2000s Euro Ford ran 4x108mm bolt pattern. Same as many Peugeots. Sierra, Escort, Fiesta, Focus the first 2 Mondeos, all ran it. They do look a lot like Escort wheels but are not quite right. Logos could simply have been removed or fallen off. They might just be generic aftermarket alloy wheels.

The guy selling them wants a perfectly reasonable figure, but he is a 3hr drive away and I dont really want to do the drive to find out they are a terrible fit or wont fit at all so I'm trying my best to ID them from the pictures.

The combination of 4x108, made in england and that retaining bolt gave me hope they were off some variety of UK Ford but so far I've pulled up zip.
