I like them a lot more than your old ones. The wide spokes are just not my style.

they sure do look the business... Your rear drums will stick out like sore thumbs, though, be warned!

I'm also more and more tempted to swap my big beautiful 18's for something more practical like 16"

I actually kinda dig those mini rims for some reason.

I rocked rota C8s for a couple of years. I never had a problem with them. My only knock against them was that the finish wasn't the toughest finish ever, they seemed to scratch pretty easy but they were not flaking or anything. I'd buy another pair. Post some pics when you get the subzeros installed.

If the mini wheels were smaller 15" or 16" I would really like them on the car, the 17" looks to large for me on this car, the rota will look sportier but like above post your gonna show those breaks big time, oh well

They look like my Racing Harts, but mine are 17's... it's probably a copy of the Rotas.

true. the 15" that look similar are not good looking at all.
and they are only 5.5" wide.

Yes, they are rather ridiculous looking.
