the wheels look an inch too small but the 5 spoke design is timeless and suits perfectly.

nice car.

So do I lol, I've always liked them tbh. There used to be a stunning White ford Orion ghia found my way that had them in 17", was the bollocks back then.

After the stealths it was the blades iirc.

I remember an s1 rs turbo that got a big write up in fast ford just for having a set of 17 inch tsw stealths on it.

Looks spot on on those wheels imo. I'm the same as yourself, have never seen the appeal of the C's, but don't think I'm ready to give up driving about in 'older' cars yet.

Interesting though you say its better handling than a B. I've only ever driven a C in straight line.
