Want to replace my alloys, what's out there to choose from?

Are the alloy details correct:

PCD 4x108
Offset 35 to 45
Bore 63.3
Front 7x15
Rear 7.5x16

There are so many to choose from, but most don't have the correct sizes stated above!

So any help would be gratefully received!

I would go larger. 16" 17" then you will have more tyre choice ,15" wheels are a bit on the small size these days.
I would go for a 8J rear if you can then you can have a 245 on the rear.

On original wheels PCD and Bore and sizes correct, but my '94' 430 has offset 25et front, 33et rear.
Some people have gone for 30et for the front and got away with it, but couldn't on mine as clearance was to tight unless I fitted spacers. I suggest you use an online Wheel Offset Calculator after doing some clearance measurements. All the cars vary a little due to their unique hand built nature.
Just to add I have got 245 tyres on my 7.5 wide wheels but that's about as wide as you would want to go on that wheel size.
