The wide centre-lock magnesium rims on the 'Sebring' MGCs looked perfect:

Now I know that every other Mk 1 and Mk 2 Escort seems to wear Mnilite-style rims, but they still look good IMO. Mine started off with polished 6x13 Superlites then progressed to 7x15 Compomotive MLs. I was tempted to change for wider rims under forest arches but thought better of it as the wings are too really good to take the grinder to. smile

I love these. In the 80/90's I used to buy them for peanuts as cheap, throw away transport. I had a lovely cream one, with a black roof, that I paid £60 for. It was absolutely mint. If only I'd kept them. frown

Acquired a set of minilite-esque Watanabes for my latest project... Look so much better than the MMAs that came off IMO

It's been said before that there isn't a car that Minilites don't look good on, but unfortunately in my opinion they don't suit this Aston Martin
