i like silver on darker cars but by no means would gunmetal treat that anthracite badly

not sure on sizes but that high offset sounds find -- may need to check another thread for specs (im a 2G owner)

I like the RE30. I would go with mercury silver. R & D has some in stock that fit

No definitely not too tucked in. 35-39 mm offset looks best. I have GT-C' in 39mm

Here are some pics of mercury silver RE30's on a black Bimmer. Definitely go with a higher offset though. 40+ is way too tucked in and 35-39 would not rub if lowered

I would go for the 18x8.5 and run a spacer on it... to get the offset down to +35 all around

^No kidding!

Someone did have these. The problem with them is that the ones that fit our car don't have the lip you always see in the pictures. If they did, it would look good; but since the ones for our car are flush, they look like crap.

my work internet is too slow to search around this website for you, but jd-tls (or some similar name) had these in 18's on his wdp tl-s so somebody run a search. i think it looked decent, some people liked it and a bunch didn't like it at all.

the setup actually looks really similar to this:
