Dezent TR Series look fantastic to me and there are 17 and 18 in OEM sizes. Pretty cheap too.

Alloy Rim from Octavia MK3 6.5Jx16 ET46 5/112 57.1

@JFJ I assume you have twister design (wouldn’t be my choice either)
 

Have a look at Skoda Octavia wheels here (page 9 of link), can get 16 inch velourum in black or normal alloy colour, also 17 inch and 18 inch (the spare part codes are also there)

I think those black wheels shod with meaty tread cross climate 2 will make you look very smug, the day it snows and you pass others stuck at bottom of a hill.

For some reason the dealer didn’t know why, mine came with silver velorum 16” wheels. To be honest even twister looks better than them! I really like rotare and Perseus but I think it may be better to wait until spring. You can get secondhand ones on eBay including tyres from Germany but postage is £80 and vat/duty is payable even though they are secondhand due to Brexit.

I wish mine has 16" wheels instead of the 18"s it's currently on.  Our roads are crap and I can't see what they look like when I'm driving.  I had Volvo S60 Business Edition with 16"s my daughter now drives, its jus so much smoother.

Im running on 19" AEZ Steam, which are going to be my winterwheels to. Next year I´ll go with some 20" of some kind 😄

 

Looking good!
