    The wheels would look good but you will definitely need to fill the holes with bigger brakes as your stock ones will look tiny behind those rims...

    Not a fan personally, but am happy to be proven wrong.

    If anything i'd go 19's for good measure.

    I reckon the ones you got on there atm are spot on for your make and model of car.

    Just a little too on the "ricey" side for my taste, that is spokes being a little too thin, but bigger brakes would look good behind em ... Personally I would keep the stockies or get some Monaro CV8 rims or the like (Nice fat spokes with more class)
    Me? I'm the guy who does his job ... you must be the other guy ...

    I would really like Genuine Holden rims, but because of being a Uni Student i can justify the massive price lol, those 18's are 1300 fitted with locking nuts, balanced with Khumo tyres.

    If i could afford it it would be a set of HBD J Series

    I reckon your stock ones look heaps better than the aftermarket. They match the car.

    Why do you give a rats what other people think??? It's going on YOUR car not your mates. If you like and can afford them get them.
