As long as it has a PCD of 5x114.3 and is of the bigger Ford variety you should be fine, pending the offset. I'm sure wheels from the XR6/8, FPV etc should be able to fit (don't hold me to that though).

I have been told Ford Falcon AU ser II onwards are the right size, and are Soarer offset friendly. I have never looked into it, but they do have a few nice choices in 17inch, if you like chunkier 5 spokes.

The Tickford 5 spoke wheels fit a soarer although the fronts are far too wide to fit inside the front guards without scrubbing, I took a soarer fitted with the Tickford wheels and turning caused the tyres to rub inside the wheel arch.

Oh, Tickford stopped at the end of the AU Falcon cycle but I believe the series I BA Falcon ran the same wheel offsets....
