Got 'em on the car! Looks great! (Would probably look even better on Dark Grey Metallic.)

I'll get pics up soon...

Yeah the bronze look better, good choice. Black wheels are becoming pretty common these days.

Not if you go Flat Black. Gloss is too shiny making it more difficult for our eyes to make out its design.

Looks great man! Any spacers? (Sorry if you mentioned it before)

You almost make me want to run the OEM wheels for my street setup

Spacers make stock wheels better. 20mm front / 25mm rear.

Gold wheels tend to make any car look better.

The medium bronze on these is nice and should play off the silver well.
