I think those rims would look good on a silver/black/white car. Anything else and I think they would call too much attention to themselves. But of course YMMV.

They're not bad looking. Definately gotta a lil bit of bling to them but i think they'd look pretty good on your car.

What are you doing wasting time looking at rims? Don't you have a turbo to install?

Sorry to hijack but does that mean that a 15.7lbs rim is a good weight?

Too much bling for me. I'd pick something that would have a tad less business to it.
Daily driver 1: 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport "S"

33" BFG Mud-Terrain KM2s, lots of Rough Country gear - bumper, 2.5" lift, swaybar disconnects, Superwinch 10,000lb winch, Detroit Locker in rear D44 axle, custom exhaust, K+N filtercharger, Superchips-tuned.

Daily driver 2: 2006 Subaru Legacy GT

COBB Stage 1+ package - AccessPort tuner, COBB intake and airbox. Stage 2 coming shortly - COBB 3" AT stainless DP and race cat, custom 3" Magnaflow-based exhaust and Stage 2 COBB tune.
