Hi Pearcey,

being someone who has just gone through this exercise, let me just tell you that the options are very numerous! :)
But it comes down to personal opinion and your budget, so I'm not going to tell you what will look good on your car, although simple spoked silver wheels are pretty safe.

I'd suggest starting with a few web browsing sessions as there are a lot of websites to look at.
Some with wheels available for sale on-line and many who have franchises around Aus with examples of their wheels online.
Google is your friend here, but just as a couple of examples, have a look at www.tempetyres.com.au, search Bob Janes website, jax tyres, etc etc
I've got brochures from these distributors right in front of me: www.kingwheels.com.au, www.wheeldemon.com.au, www.speedywheels.com.au, www.bsawheels.com.au.

There's also Lenso wheels which tempetyres and others sell. I like the wheels but don't like the distributor after buying a set & they took over 3 months to get the center caps looking right (they supplied wrong shape & wrong colour 4 times and I had to visit them twice) Lenso wheels generally look great though.

bob jane website and some others have on-line demonstrations so you can try their wheels on your car.

I know that doesn't answer your question but I hope it gives you a start.

Cheers! Oggy.
