As it stands, I did have a couple of offers for the wheels, but unfortunately nothing which would make me part with them really as they are a fantastic rim. They may be better suited to a classic, however, I suppose I was trying to stick away from the more common look (sorry If I offend) and try something a little quirky or different and get a look which you do not see everwhere. More of the Jap look. I suppose not everyone has the same taste at the end of the day.
Thanks for all your comments though.

Rich, you know my thoughts on the wheels...
The bronze colour shrinks the wheel (as any dark colour would), and you also have the chunkier bugeye styling to contend with...I'd go for a side light de-tango, tinted rear five windows, sti front splitter and sti projection headlamps...that will look v cool, especially with your blue nuts
