I love bronze wheels. They look hot on virtually every color. But the only color they dont go well with is GG.

I almost bought this exact same wheel for my car. I regret it now. Its actually Falkens lightest wheel they make. I say go for it.

Not a good color choice for a GG

Personally, I don't like the angled spokes.

Gold on GG, hmm, not too sure you know what I mean?

GG is hard to pull off many colors.

But it's just a preference

i've seen your ride in person. and you just may be able to pull off this color. It's hard to say until you hold the actual wheel up in person next to the car. I remember shopping for wheels for my eclipse. Things look totally different on a screenshot as compared to being seen in real life next to the car.

GG is hard to put wheels on IMO. I personally like black best...
Look at these Evo's below to give you an idea:

Have any of you seen these wheels in person? I have and they look really good. Oh and one side of the car the spokes will be going one way, and the other side, they will be pointing the other way. But they look soooo much better on a car.
