I think the lines of the car are very elegant, so it can be challenging to find something compatible. I think a straight spoked deep concave wheel gives the car some style without detracting from the overall design aesthetic. Very subjective as you can see from some of the aggressive reactions.
Only downside was they looked a bit small on the F-Type, with even bigger wheel arch gaps at the rear due to the slightly smaller overall diameter (285/30 tyres vs stock 295/30). Also, the rear wheels were .5" narrower, 10" vs 10.5" stock. Fronts were identical sizes to stock, both wheels and tyres. The Coventrys are now gone, sold with my old XFR, and if they made them in 10.5" wide (they don't, biggest is 10") I would get another set for the F-Type and put MPS4S on them, and sell the Blades.

Just as the right earrings can make a pretty face all the more stunning, the right wheels can enhance the lines of a beautiful car.
Some can be conservatively understated, others can be aggressively bold... but just the right harmonious combination can produce a synergistic elegance and beauty.

Man, so many great wheels combos out there. I just picked up a base conv and the car is awesome. It's the medium gray color (can't remember the name). It's got the stock 18s which look pretty good but the brakes dust so bad thinking of going to a 19-20" darker wheels. Some of the bronze look pretty good but not sure about the color combo. Really like the Niche M130 targa as they have a slight bronze tint and black backing. Thoughts? Thanks!

Great pics, but a somewhat frustrating topic for me given my preference for BBS and Volk, neither of which have fitment for these cars (only 21" BBS CH-RIIs). Volk needs commitment of 10 sets to build custom wheels which is unrealistic for this market, and I'm not spending $10K+ for HREs which will be illiquid after my lease is up.
SSR does make Professors in our fitment, but that's a stretch. I'd hesitate to change OEM wheels with anything other than BBS, Volk, or HRE as other brands simply aren't for me.
