Looks good! Both the car and the photo itself, the sun behind the clouds gives a nice halo effect
Are they the Gold or Gunmetal face?

They are the hyper gold, not as 'gold' in real life as they look in the promotional pictures. A great looking wheel though!
I'll get some more decent pictures when I have a chance.

EDIT: Here's a pic i just took at work, still mobile phone but a better picture!

yer i think they look good.. some say it dates the car, but i think it makes it look alot more aggressive.

as for suspension it is stock SE suspension, as you can see, it needs to be lowered at the rear! haha

Tyre size is 205/50R15 Bridgestone Re001s which coped a beating at Oran Park 2day hahaha to much sideways action

With your tyre size....wouldn't they be massively stretched on a 8inch rim? They'd be more like 225's or 235's wouldn't they?

not a chance, it should work out flush 195's have the stretched look

really...i'm guessing theres a difference between tyre sizes on a 15inch rim and 16inch rim. Because on my factory 16's which are either 6 or 6.5inch's wide i hav 205/45s which fit flush, lol so try and fix my confusion....im typing on a phone

The +15 offset only has a 7inch rim, whereas the +0 offset rims are 8inch.

So the 205/50 on a 7inch is flush, but note the 50 side wall.

Whereas 205/45 on a 16 but with a lower profile should be flush as well.
