Gold wheels on a black Mini. In case anyome want's to know what that looks like.

Got these from the Sube-Dude for my intermediate wet track tires. They are Rota Subzeros. 17x7.5x45 offset. Excelent wheel, a bit heavy for track at 16lbs, but they took hardly any weight at all to balance They are wrapped with Toyo RA1, 235/40s
Yes, some body work needed to fit these, but nothing real major.

Onasled: The wheels and tires are astonishing, but I can't help being impressed by the luxuriant background with foliage in sun and shade. I can almost smell the season. Lucky you.
