Here is another local SARX members 2010 with similar wheels, but no drop. But with a nice simple H tech drop it would look clean.

Not sure what i think about the silver rivets, but yeah those wheels should look good on a silver '09. Are those the first ones you have really looked at or are there any others you have been thinking about?

Keep in mind those rims are much heavier than stock... not performance based at all.
