Should I buy these rims or no? Options

[schmooot]

I've got 7th gen gts wheels on right now. 16x6.5. I'm running longer studs and 15mm spacers just to make them barely clear the front calipers.

Thinking of buying these new ones.



Here is how the car sits right now




The new (to me) rims I am considering:


How it may look on the car. I didn't have the right lugs with me so I couldn't lower it to the ground








The Pro's
-Lots of clearance around the brake parts (I can fit my hand around them)
-No spacers required
-8" wide as opposed to 6.5" (The rear end looks awesome with big fat tires back there)
-Will fill the wheel wells more
-Looks very flush so far
-I think they look real sharp but it is hard to tell with the car in the air and only one wheel on.

The Con's
-Quite a bit heavier than current wheels (which means they are ridiculously heavy compared to the stock alloys)
-Can't really afford them unless I sell my current setup
-The tires are no good, I will need to replace them
-Might fit the wheel wells a little too much and cause rubbing under hard turns
-bloody heavy

I think I've made my decision. They are a crap brand...on par with Core rims. And still uber heavy. I'll keep my eyes peeled for some 17x7.5 or maybe 17x8 down the road. Don't need to be buying rims right now when I've got perfectly good ones on the car
