How do you think those would look on my DG G for the winter time. I was thinking gunmetal becuase they will be easier to maintain in the winter months. Here is an old pic of the winter setup I currently have, but I really hate the rims. Other than the rims in the link above does anyone have any ideas for a cool set of 17x8's that will clear brembos for my winter setup?

I looked at those when I was shopping around - they're nice. I sent you a PM for another option too

do not trust what that website says. this winter i was shopping for 17 inch rims and came across that website. i purchased rims from them that they had said would fit over my brembo brakes, but they were wrong and it was a whole ordeal trying to return them. tirerack has a good set of rims that will fit.

I wasnt going to order from them, I know the owner of wheelsdirectonline.com and planned to order through them. I just gave that url because according to them the offset of the 17x8 is +28.. theoretically they should clear the brembos.

Oh, and I have 5mm spacers on my front wheels right now anyways and plan to use them with whatever winter setup I go with, only because I installed longer wheel studs and dont want to switch them back to stock... so the front would be +23, which will definately clear the front brakes.
