Upon opening the thread, my first thought was why not get something from the USA?
Bound to be plenty of quality re-pros available, at reasonable prices, for a variety of models. And I'm sure most of our early wheels were based on US designs. In fact wasn't there a thing with some Aussie cars (LTDs???) being fitted with (Mercury) Cougar wheels? Good Variety here: https://www.ebay.com.au/sch/m.html?_...ucts&_nkw=ford As for being "appropriate", IMHO if you're not fitting a perfect replica of the original, then picking something you like, which is "close enough", is ok. ie: it doesn't make much sense to insist that it needs to be a XW, or XA, or whatever. If it's not the same as an original ZF, or an original option, then it's owner's choice, and providing it fits and looks "era appropriate" that's fine.
