The wheels below look a bit odd to me, is it wrong, if so, what should the right setup be?

Is the other side the same with the direction of the spokes going in opposite directions?
If so, swap either the front wheels or the rear wheels to make the spokes go in the same direction on each side.

I don't think there is a right or wrong direction with those but they should at least be the same front & rear

That's a great looking car, and I like those wheels although I wouldn't enjoy cleaning them!
As others have said you probably need to switch either the fronts or rears from one side to the other.

Coupes because stunning!

Also, what could be a bit disturbing, is if you had directional tyres incorrectly mounted on directional wheels, such that if one was right, the other had to be wrong... Just shows you need to work with people who know what they are doing
