yeah the rims look great . If you do something similar to what junky was saying I think it will end up being a good setup.

Ok buddy, let me help you out then. Flush but not Hellaflush, got it. Lower the car max 2" with some nice quality coilovers. Run no less then a +40 offset wheel at 9.5" wide, if you find a wheel that's wider then you need +50-60+ range offset. No more then -3 camber. There is your Flush and aggressive fitment which retains performance if not an improvement, if done right with the proper size tread.

The car pictured is over 3" drop, with plus 20-25+ offset at -5 to -6 camber with 215/225 tires!
Thanks mate this is what im after,

you say +40 9.5 wide how will +35 8.75 work? If needed I'm willing to roll arches as she getting full make over. It has coilovers in it not sure of make. might be stupid question but is it posable to have stock camber or do i have to change it to suit. reason I ask is I lowered the S on 17" rims and they ar angled enough for my liking, well in the rear anyway.
I have a hard time giving advice on something I wouldn't run. For me I want max performance, and an aggressive look is part of owning a sports car

Really like the look of the wheels... IMHO they stick out a little too far, but if you roll/flare the fender and run the right alignment it may just work!

I don't like too much camber, but it does look nice.
