Ford Alloy Wheels - Which are Best

Which standard ford wheels do people think look best on a locost?
Looking for 15" on ebay, best I can find are ford puma millenium alloys.
What do you guys think? any pics of cars fitted with standard ford wheels?

Thanks

Mike

"powder coated satin black"

Having said that - I did paint the centre caps with satin black acrylic spray from the local motor factors. It was a perfect match...

Cheers

Ford RS 7 spokes look nice, along with Fiesta ST 16inch wheels.

Guiness,

There's something about your Sierra Alloys and the white trye lettering that looks "right". I'm not quite sure why but I like it.

In standard Ford, I like the three spokes, but I'm old.
