New Wheels?

alright, currently i have 16 inch ICW talons on my car, in black. i've been looking for a bit of a change, and my friend is trying to go for a red/black theme on his eclipse so we're thinking of trading wheels. we've pretty much agreed on trading my 16's (and $200 on top) for his 17 inch bronze 5zigen's, i was just wondering what you guys think about the change. i'll be sure to post up pics when theyre mounted.
current setup:

the wheels i'm trading for:

an idea of how they'll look:

anyway what do you guys think? dig the gold/graphite combo or do you think it'll look awful? i guess only time will tell.

Yes, those rims are very nice. You wouldn't happen to know the price on those 5zigen's do you?

That car is mad sexy. It would look good even with flower painted steel wheels. But yes i agree with the rest. That is a deadly combination

I have ICW's as well, and they are knock off. Mine are a knock off Volk. So a imitation vs a real brand no question. Plus the look is totally there
