Do you think these wheels ( Breyton Race CS, Matte grey w/red stripe) will look good on a Black or Gray G8. You can see them at Tire Rack.com.

I've seen 'em on another board. They do look good with that color. I don't know about that red stripe though.

Diddo! Love the wheel, but hate the stripe.

seems a classy match w/White Hot, esp. complimenting an onyx/red int

Have a set of staggered Breyton Race CS in silver with machined lip on order. Going on Spt. Red. Red stripe wheels are a matter of personal preference. MGM or Black car would show them off best.

Watch out on your offsets, I had rubbing with a 9.5" with a +35mm offset.

YOU ARE BRING UP A VERY IMPORTANT POINT!

I'm aware of width issues. Have staggered Beyern Multi's with 45 offset 9.5 wheels with 050-A Bridgestone 285's that have a cross-section of almost 12 inches on my white 08'.. TireRack says staggered Breyton's will fit with no rubbing. Guess we'll see.

Another rubbing issue I have is with "Charlie's" lower panel mod. I have flap hanging down to direct air upwards. Rubs at every drive/ speed bump etc... just like my old C5 Vette! First thought it was tire rubbing!!!

These were my first set of aftermarket wheels (Breyton Race CS), and I had rubbing on the rears even with a 255/40 on the rear (19x9.5 w/ +35mm offset)! Damnit, I really like those wheels too. They were the silver, with machined lip.

I imagine rolling the fenders would take care of it but I wanted to keep from that if at all possible. The rubbing was very slight to say the least, but it still rubbed.

G8V8 cut off a bit of his fenders. May have to roll them or trim them if necessary.. Just not wanting to do it to 2 cars... Unfortunately, my front air intake flap rubs all the time so will truly be dazed and confused.....
