3 spokes are great wheels, fwiw I dislike the Fiesta ones and mainly like JDM split rim versions but I don't know why people have so much hate for them tbh I think they're such a cool design, obviously not as clean as a nice 5 spoke but timeless all the same imo.
Here's some of the best ones I have owned and I've owned many...
Advan SA3A
Advan SA3R
Enkei 3 piece
Rays C-one one piece & split variations
Tri Force Zelda's
Keichi Tsuchiya SSR's
Hirsch also did very nice set of deep dish 3 spokes for Saabs (not the "Aero" ones, which are cool in their own right)

For what it's worth, here's mine on OEM Range Rover classic 3 spokes. Massive PCD, a lot of effort, but worth it in my opinion…

LOVE ^that^ Golf. It's a real credit to you and one of my personal fave Golfs. Just 'so' right in every respect.

Yeah that golf looks so subtle almost factory like , amazing job Like the fact though even nor car enthusiasts would look at the car and wonder why it looked different if ya know what I mean Also for the record I used to look at fiesta rs back in the day and think the std 3 spokes ruined the car , but owning one and maybe old age helps but really like them now and think they were ahead of there time slightly Only other wheel for a fiesta rs is escos wheels but they are 5 spokes Maybe the fiesta 3 spokes would have looked slightly better in 15" rather than 14"

Optional 'upgrade' wheels from the RS accessory catalogue for the Escort and Mondeo. Ford missed a trick with these, they should have fitted them as standard on the Fiesta RS Turbo instead of the thinner 14" flat faced 3 spokes. Very, very rare, I've only ever seen one other car with these fitted (and there's a set of the 13" version on eBay) photos really do not do the wheels justice, in the flesh they look amazing. As anyone who has seen them on the car can testify.

I then wanted to start cleaning the interior as it stinks of wood (the material not the smell of a boner) best quote ever!

I love these wheel trims on this car, and since I can't afford any of the 3 spoke alloys I like, let alone find them in Citroen friendly PCD and offset, the Synergie trims will do me just fine.

Saab 3 spokes will always be acceptable. As will advan racing alloys.
