Kosei K1's?

Hey guys, I had a few quick questions about wheels. So recently, I've been looking around to upgrade to a new set of rims. I've been leaning towards a set of 17 x 8 Kosei K1 TS's (Gold Painted) but I'm not sure if the gold will be too bright. I currently have bronze painted stock rims on my car, and I do like the look.
I thought these were good wheels, even tho they're cast, cuz they only weigh 15.5 lbs, and was hoping someone could give me some input on these. Has anyone had bad experiences with them? If I don't get these, I'll probably go for Gram Lights 57C 17 x 7.5's (Bronze painted).
Does anyone have pictures of dark colored 4th gens with these wheels on them? Thanks!

Can't speak to the gold but their quality is decent. I've had K1 Racing's for 3yrs w no probs.

Kosei makes quality, affordable wheels. One of the few.

I have the 17X7 K1 TS's but in silver. No problems yet after a year. The best part is my 17inch wheel/tire combo weighs less than my 15 inch sawblades winter combo

Well, it's good to hear that no one has had problems. Rapid, I checked your cardomain, and I think the wheels actually look really good on the max. However, I still wish I could see them in gold on a dark max... perhaps it's time for a photoshop. I'll still keep checking back here in case anyone posts pics.
