thoughts?

what would you think of Beretta Indy/GTU or Z26 wheels on a 2g?
Indy/GTU 16x7"
keeping in mind that these ones are accented with corresponding colors like in this pic

Z26 16x7"



I'm just looking at something a bit different than regular aftermarket rims and downsizing from 18s, a little less metal, more tire. definitely wouldn't be common.

Not a huge fan of color on the wheels to match the car. Not sure that style would look great either. So many people on here are awesome on PhotoShop, get them to hook it up so you can check it out!

I'm down for the purpose, but the Beretta wheels don't look like they'd supply enough ventilation to the brakes???
