Just make sure the offset is correct (as near to ET48 as possible) and dont go wider than a 7" wheel.

If you do....expect poor handling and dodgy looks as the wheel will stick out too much

Surely the only choice?

Some people are like a Slinky ........ not really good for anything, but you still can't help

Lenso Stage One (lovely black spokes and polished rim)

I think the RSV kahn alloys are the best, Kahn RSC are a bit too open and i dont like the way they show the little discs off
