I love the 50th 19's, gives it a classier look, dont mind the rims dags posted either.

The FG G serie styling language is the one used by the Euro executive car makers.

In essence its a European dark tailored suit, with some bright accents such as watches and cufflinks. Its a styling language from the whole Euro aristocratic thing that says, ' I have tailored clothes and therefore don't work hard physically and I own shiny things, and you don't...' (Anyone with a Euro background will be more than familiar with this crap)

So in terms of cars the material and finish palette translates to:

• Rich dark metallic or pearl dark colors, or, metallic or pearl light neutrals (no primaries, no primary complements, no luminescent, no optically variables, no pastels, no flat finishes)
  
• No high contrast colour schemes
  
• Moderate-heavy use of chrome accents (windows, grill, rear)
  
• Busy grey or other neutral grill that obscures machinery
  
• No overt wings, small spoilers only
  

By contrast classic American muscle styling (such as found in the 1970 Mustang and XR/F6 series) says, I don't care what you think, this kit and I will kick your behind very far. Its into wings, bulges, exposed machinery, big fat wheels, tyres... whatever. It is (ideally), or purports to be, an exposition of high technology, power and physical potential.

So for any wheel to work styling wise with the FG G series it needs to have:

1. a large I.e. factory diameter
   
2. no dish!
   
3. bright silver finish
   
4. no evident black contrasts
   
5. no color highlights
   
6. high spatial frequency spoke design, I.e. certainly more than 5 spokes and probably 8 or more
   
7. the spokes may prefererentially exhibit some complexity, refinement or detail
   

It cannot have:

• high contrast colours
  
• exceedingly thin evidently structurally optimized spokes
  
• fat spokes or big blocky forms

That black one above looks nice but it's a chop, mines that low and the wheels sit further inwards than that, you need 20+mm spacers to look more flush

Side note my marcellos are on eBay for a steal!

Link?

Never mind, found them. I'd by them in a heart beat if I had the spare cash atm.
