Can it ever be or is it a contradiction of terms. I usually loathe three spokes but seeing a rover 800 with them - and for some reason they just look 'right'. Am I going nuts? Anyone else got some decent looking cars with three spokes on em?  Saw it on ebay at the mo, shame the current owner completely screwed it over  |

Yes, they DO look good on Rovers. There used to be a later shape R800 round here with them on in 18in flava. I liked it |

I actually quite like that 'French Look' 800.
Worrying.

big inch 3 spokes are cool its when people put 13" ones with 85 profile tyres on their novas that it looks curse word.

This thread should be titled "Three-spoke BADNESS"

Good three-spokes:   Saab know how to do it. There were probably a hundred times as many 'bad' three spokes as good ones. The rover pictured up top made me gag a little, like the taste of month-old mayonnaise. |

On MR2 club, this lad got a bit of flaming, the size did not help, 17's are frowned on too.  I think they have potential. specially in black or gunmetal etc  from the same thread: Oooofff  technically 6 spokes? |

 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts  |

Three spoke are just wrong, sorry Tigran.
I admire your shoehorning of big GM engine into Rover & also your cool Viva ownership, but this is too far mate.

See, I think that MR2 works. Looks very "period" whilst still being quite pure and not adorned with naffness.
AM I JUST MISUNDERSTOOD?
