pic 2 yes

the wheels in pic 1 are making the car look like it's sitting too high and aren't filling the arches properly, will be a right pain to clean as well

Well, as you're asking, I prefer the originals - though I think they would look better in a lighter colour against that colour car.

scratchchin

The new wheels have got some dish which always looks good on a rear wheel drive GT - although the car looks a touch higher in its arches than on the original wheels - but still looks pleasing.

The 16" Cerb wheels used to look pretty bland compared with spiders.
Maybe it's the passage of time but they are starting to look rather good.

Skinny wire wheels look quite comical on there own, but on a'61 E Type they look just right.
This may be the same effect on the Cerb ?

I cant help thinking that an early 4.2 on 16" ,with original single h/lamps etc is , increasingly, going to be recognised as the definitive , classic Cerbera.
Much like the 289 Cobra , when compared to the 427.

that said, my Chim runs big ass wheels.. and im on on the red wine and Guiness , so i may not be best qualified to comment hehe

Pic 2 for me, though would prefer a lighter colour too. The first pic wheels are ok, but as already said they make the car look like it's sitting too high.

Can't beat a classic / original look.

Picture two. But I don't mind the other wheels. Some aftermarket wheels suit the Cerbera better in my opinion.

I don't really like saturn's or (most) aftermarket wheels on cerb's. Although, picture 2 might have just changed my opinion on the saturn's biggrin
