Default Wheel Opinions PLEASE

Very close to deciding on some new wheels and found these. Like them b/c A.) 5 spoke B.) Clean design C.) They are in gunmetal
Let me know what you guys think or if you know of anything comparable in appearance/cost. Car is a silver Speed 3. Was going to wrap them in 225/40/18 falken FK452's.

Thanks.

Post of a picture of your car and I can photoshop them on so we can get a better feel for its overall look. The rims look nice alone, but they can look ugly on a car.

Here is a QUICK cruddy photoshop, but I don't think I like them on there. Spokes are too big. Personally I LOVE the rims that are stock for the MS3.

Eh. I like 5-spokers and I am having a bit 'o' trouble picturing how these would really look, but I think you could do better. That's, of course, just my .02.
