it's fwd, if anything the bigger wheels should be on the front.

I'd go 17's, think 5-spokes would look better a bit smaller.

Haha, I just saw a black CL with those rime in black today! Strange thing, it was in my neighborhood! Found it when I was riding my bike and stuck an Acurazine.com sticky note on the door handle. I'll post pics later.

depending on the widths/offsets of the wheels, they may look good. not really feelin the color tho, and IMO i'd go 18" all around

I think it could easily be pulled off and look excellent, gold rims/silver lip on red with tinted windows and a slam

Like mitch says, make sure the offsets work. One big thing everyone forgets sometimes is the hub bore size, that can really ruin your plans...i think our cars are 64.15mm. Too small and they wont fit, any larger and you need plastic shim ring (real cheap).

Red and gold is a great theme, but having mismatched sized wheels won't look good. Make the wheels the same size so they match. You have a FWD car, different sized rear rims only look good or even make sense if you have a RWD car
