Any quality 5 star will look great with the 8. Those look sick.

I like them, but the size and offset is pretty weak.

I think its tough with the Dark grey metallic car color, as i have one myself. I think black with with chrome is a little to much and draws too much attention away from the car. Im looking into new wheels as well and am probably just going to find some all black or hyper black wheels.

I'm going to go against the grain here and say keep looking. I do not like black wheels with polished surfaces because it takes away from the design of the wheel. Not sold on the design either. Does it come in any other finish?

Not really liking them. Never been a fan of machined surfaces on wheels.

Thanks for the input. It's difficult to tell if they'll look good on the car from just the stock photo. I think I will keep looking, but they're not discarded yet.
