That said, they do suit the 200-series cars like the RB though I think they're rather "busy" by comparison with the Virgos that the 240 GLT usually wears. My personal preference is for a wheel that is plain and whose wheel-stud to spoke ratio is a whole number - the Pholus is a 13-spoke wheel for instance - but it is your car and therefore your choice.

I think you are right Loki: Pholus do suit 244s surprisingly well. I'm pretty sure the RB would have had the Pholus wheels on for that day out at the Black Country Museum. Virgo wheels look good on a 244 as well, here is the RB's summer wear:
Both look good (IMHO).
