Yeah, I wasn't sure about that, but I think I'm happy. I've tried black wheels and dark gray wheels, and wasn't happy with the results - the black wheel doesn't match the black paint, and the gray wheels don't match the panels... I could repaint, but I don't wanna do that.
Wheels are $125/ea, +40mm offset, 16x7, 16lbs each. Rota "Grid." They're copies of the Volk TE37, which is a killer wheel. The Rota is a couple pounds heavier, but 25% the cost. I was happy saving 8lbs per wheel over the Super Aeros I had before.
Of course, to Philip's point, they *would* look more at home on a Japanese car because they are Japanese. :) I was just tired of trying to find a light, affordable wheel that would bolt up to a Saab.
