still no hi-res pic 
took this pic using my phone's camera. and yup, you guessed it, the rims are bluish from factory 
the yellow decals had to be put on so people don't mistake them for replicas. i think they look rather nice, and give the car a very race-y image. the decals read "Superlight in Weight Forged-Wheel Real Racing model II" and boy were they a PITA to put on the lip

I am about to purchase new wheels (online) for my MCS (Dark Silver w/ Black trim).
Here's what I am thinking, wanted some opinions and have one question:
Wheels:
Konig Runaways (in solid black)
http://www.wheelfire.com/imagesprodu...wBlk-thumb.jpg
With Yokohama Parada Spec-2 Summer Tires (I live in Cal ..it hardly rains)
My question:
I was going to order from WheelsNext.com (they seem to have the best price and exactly what I want). They list two available widths for the 17", a "205" and "215" width. I didn't know 215's would fit???
Also, has anyone ordered from wheelsnext, will they install the TPS on the wheels?? (I'll probably call them and ask about the TPS).
Thanks,

my apologies, ...I've seen many posts that discuss wheels on this thread. Hence I thought it was open for discussion.
no worry, will take my question to another thread.

eR1c,
Those wheels are 17x7 with a 4x100 bolt pattern, so you only need to get the 205's. They'll be fine. You might want to check www.1010tires.com, I think they have them for $149.99/wheel. Good luck.

15x7.5 et40 Rota Slipstream
They are a 56.1mm hub bore, so no centering rings. Shaved 205/50R15 Toyo RA1 tires. 5mm spacers on the back. I honestly didn't check to see if they fit without spacers. If they do, it would be so incredibly close...
