I've always liked to see a nice set of wheels and tyres filling the wheelarch since my first car.
I upgraded my Herald to Spitfire style 5.5J Dunlop steels. Had a basic met blue Firenza a few cars on with lovely polished Wolfrace alloys the previous owner had wasted his money on.
Then my Saab 99 Turbo sat so nicely on its wider alloys compared with a standard model.

Similarly Mrs F's Audi 80GT looked nice with its alloys compared with a GL model on skinny steels.

But apart from the Herald I've never paid to upgrade wheels.
