Default xr2 alloys?

I am fan of the old standard pepperpots on the xr2 but would like to know and see what other people think is the nicest alloys for the xr2.i have seen capri alloys on a xr2 and they looked smart.

will be starting my xr2t project soon and just need some ideas on what alloys to get.i dont think i will be going any bigger that 15"

thanks, Andy

best wheels for a mk2 XR2 in my opinion are mk5a RS2000 wheels, the polished ones! They look incredible

I had Fiesta RS1800 wheels on mine which are the same but 14" look well nice. If I ever have another mk2 fiesta it will have 15" Rs2000 mk5 alloys!

I had the 14" RS 7 spokes on mine with the metal locking cap in the middle, so I had them polished with Black on the inner spokes, looked sweet

But the best ones are the Mk5 RS2000 polished rims as said above they just fit perfect
