Top tip is to look for Peugeot steelies. PCD is the same as old Fords (4x108) but they have a much smaller offset so will stand out wider in the arches. Don't know if it's legal but looks great if you get it right.

Also the middle hole will be bigger than on Ford's so theoretically you'd need spigot rings. However I think neither Ford nor Peugeots are hubcentric.

Try at own risk.
