Default Which wheels.?.?.?

Ive just joined this forum so hi to everyone Now, im after some advice about one my cars

Ive finally got around to gettin my low mileage Moondust Silver FRST back together and on the road, but as much as i like the immaculate standard three spoke wheels id like something bit bigger and more upto date..

The car is completely standard apart from being lowered around 30-50m (not really sure) s.s exhaust and filter..

Any goods ideas,thoughts or pic's of other Moondust FRST's.....

Cheers

Mondeo 16" look the business.

My bro's FRST at Fiesta in The Park.



Don't bother with Escort Cossie rims as although though they look good they balls up the handling and are a bastard to fit without loads of arch hacking

i had the 16's on my car. 195/45 all round and only needed small spacers on the rear. i found using different tyres effect how much spacing out they needed.
