Default Anyone have pics of a silver GS w/black wheels?

I've had nothing but trouble trying to put big-lip 18's on my 2001 430 (vibration from 60-65 mph...had the shocks, springs, ball joints, tie rod ends, control arms, bushings, steering pretensioner and wheels/tires roadforce balanced to no avail), so I'm going to try 17s with an offset similar (but not identical) to the OEM wheels.

They're lighter than OEM by approx 4 lbs / wheel but have an offset of +35 instead of +50.

Anyway, I wanted to see what they might look like on a silver GS. The pattern is from Tirerack ASA R1s (very BBS-ish)

Thanks in advance!
