Default BEst wheels on a 99 wagon? suggestions please

I have just brought my wagon yesterday and the wheels are quite corroded and I was thinking about buying some new rims and was wondering what you folk thought looks best and if you have any pics of cool wheels on wagons.

PS wagon is green,

Unless your priority is reducing weight (in which case you need to be aware that many aftermarket wheels are no lighter than standard) then the wheels off a newage car look good on a classic. Anthracite goes very well with a green classic, and with the Subaru centre caps they look like they belong on the car. I picked some up second hand for my MY00 for small money.
Either way 17s look best.
