You should provide some pics of your car and the wheels and post up the the photoshop section of this forum. You find more help there.

sorry, cant do the photoshop but IMHO its not a good choice.
But I can't think of any car they'd look good on.
If you like them, go for it. but I'd keep looking, lol

Edit : I looked again, I do like them on the Q, but I am NOT a fan of these wheels.

I have an SC and I hated the wheels even ON the SC. My first mod was to get rid of the wheels and upgrade them the 06+ wheels

Even the SC owner don't like the pieplate design......go with the five star design so much better.

When I took the pie plates off my SC430 the wife wanted to slap them on our LS. Sometimes you have to tell people when things don't look right.
