Spurred on by 'ugly wheels' comment in another thread, what are the best and worst OEM wheels ever fitted?

Best could be dozens. Original 911 Fuchs wheels (an the modern '50 anniversary incarnation thereof). Alfa's teledial wheel as per 8C/Giulia QV (biased wink ). Original E30 M3 Cross Spokes. Any 1960's Ferrari.

Worst..? Most squared off Japanese 80s wheels. M4 GTS cross-spoke with orange inserts?

Basically the same wheel on a Fiesta RS Turbo but doesn't work quite as well
Yes....but in 1990 when they came out, they were awesome. My friends mum had the 1.4S, hot hatch for it's day, then when the RS Turbo came out it was just jaw-dropping and so futuristic (although never a match for the 5GT Turbo in my eyes)
