Gunmetal wheels w/ polished lip. Do you have any? What looks good?
So I've decided I want to get some gunmetal wheels w/ a polished lip. I've found a few that I like, but they are difficult to find in a size that will fit. Here's one I found that looks okay, but not in our size.

If you have any ideas or links to good ones, let me know. These are only going to be a winter set so I'd like to spend <$1000.
My car is Tectite Gray, and I think I've decided against the CL63/Monarch style wheels, because I don't think a bright silver wheel is going to look good on the car.
Anyway, if you have good ideas, examples, pics, etc of gunmetal wheels w/ polished lip on a charcoal car, let em fly!

Wheelmax says those won't fit, and they don't have any wheels that will.
Gah!
Back to searching for ANY gunmetal/polished wheels that will fit my car

I found some gunmetal wheels w/ polished lip that I think look good.
Fronts are 18x8.5, 35mm offset, 5x112, hub bore 73.
Rears are 18x9.5, 35mm offset, 5x112, hub bore 73.
Will these work? Think I should stick with 18s, or go with 19s?

Nah, I'm trying to stay away from a silver face. Crap. I really want to find out whether these wheels will fit or not, because if they will, i'll order them. Does anyone know for sure whether these will or will not fit?
As far as tires go, is there anything wrong with going with 245/40/18 front and 265/35/18 rear? That's what I'm looking at doing.
