Stock Sport 17's made into Split Fives?

I mocked these up this morning and took a couple pics. I always thought the stock sport wheels could be made into some nice split fives with either some machining or painting. This is just black sticky stuff for now, and I'd never drive it this way, but I think the look could work. Thoughts? Don't hold back.



Different angle:

Never noticed that is does make them look smaller. As for cheap, yeah it does but like I said it's just a quickie mockup to get the general idea; I'd have it done professionally if at all. Wish I could afford new ones. Maybe like these:
