On a fairly stock rev 2 possibly dude, but your choice
Re: [Mk2] [Generic] are these to blingy (found these now)
not planning on keeping it stock its just wheels just so set a car off, my colour is quite funky its just i thought thay might look quite cool, seen a nice two on ebay that was suburu blue with gold wheels and that was awsome, the wheels are quite a big expense just want to make right choice my one requirement really is thay must have a polished lip really want 18" but might have to settle for 17"
Re: [Mk2] [Generic] are these to blingy (found these now)
To be honest all you need do is a lip and skirts (subtle GReddy for example) and that would probably looks the dogs
Bear in mind though its not far off the price of 2nd hand refurbed Jap rims from the likes of RBMotoring in the US...

I really like them mate, would suit your car.
Not sure about the inner gold though. Only works on a white or black car in my opinion. get them in all silver

funny im looking at a greddy front lip, i want toms skirts and an autopista spoiler and two toms scoops and if i can afford it a carbon bonnet of course this will be over time, just had a result though been promoted at work another £3000 in my pocket which will come in handy i suppose.
Re: [Mk2] [Generic] are these to blingy (found these now)
For the 17" they only come in 7J, you wont be able to get very wide tyres on there. I think 215/45 is the widest.

The Inovate look better than the Rotas IMHO, will have a go at photo shopping them during lunch
Re: [Mk2] [Generic] are these to blingy (found these now)
err maybe I wont photoshop them, as for some reason my PC at work wont run photoshop anymore

Here's what the Gold D1's look like on a 2....
They are over £600 (some places over 700) to buy so that guy has got them up very cheap...
Trouble is he's only selling the 7.5" all around & the weak ET of 45. That won't look good and will be well tucked in. You would need the added expense of spacers.
You ideally want a staggered set up & a more aggresive offset. But having said that the choice is down to the owner and what look you're actually after. Me personally... the wider the better..
If you are buying new wheels you might as well buy ones that fit.
FYI..The rear shot i put up is the 8.5J with a 35 ET
I also have to add..i 'm not sure about gold suiting your colour car.
But remember..its all about what you like..
Re: [Mk2] [Generic] are these to blingy (found these now)
blimey this wheel shopping is a nightmare glad ive got a while to look all these different offsets and tyre sizes do thay need spacers its a fri88ing nightmare, shamus yours looks the dogs dangleys matey love it from the rear looks so wide

9J is the way to go -
Re: [Mk2] [Generic] are these to blingy (found these now)
ive got inovite Aros on my 2, but in black with a polished lip, i love the wheels and think they really suit the car. plus because your car is quite bright anyway, i reckon they would suit it well
Re: [Mk2] [Generic] are these to blingy (found these now)
Really like those, but not sure about the gold with your colour car. Perhaps black/darg gun metal would look better? I to have been toying with the idea of gold with a polished lip. But not sure about it against SMG.
Re: [Mk2] [Generic] are these to blingy (found these now)
dan88 im with you on the colour i think because my car is quite bright i would carry it off i may stick with the gold one's
steveo you are just making me jealous i love those rims

I think you should look out for some 16" Work Equips or if getting a bodykit fitted 17" - 18" Work Equips
Now I have to go and wipe C50's drool off them
