Default which alloys ?

I currently have 16" pro race 1.2s fitted on my puma and really want a genuine ford alloy in 16" form, which one looks better to you guys as I can decide ??

its a thunder model jamie so had the 15" multispokes as standard which look like the zs alloys, but I needed 16" and 17s is a way too harsh a ride on a puma and focus 170 alloys have a stupid high offset anyway so would have needed spacers to look right, I may get lucky and find someone with a decent set of mondy 5 spokes wanting a swap

What about cougar rims, 16" 6 spoke? get the plain ones with the ford centre caps as some have cougar embossed on the spoke or on the centre cap.

Aren't sport/street ka rims 16"?

I recently saw a puma with Mondy mk2 ghia 12 spoke wheels which are 16" and suit the car well.
Heres a set on a breaker im looking at at the mo... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1813282669...84.m1423.l2649

QUICK NOTE. All 4 stud fwd ford fitments will need spacers, no other car uses the pumas et34
im sure mondys are about et40!
look at et35 aftermarkets...

Never seen softlines on a puma. They would suit it.

Also what about a set of TSW Hocks?? They would suit it too lowered
