Enkei FD-05 with YOKOHAMA S Drive's - Opinions?

Ok, well i'm in the market (and going to buy really soon) for a new rim/tire setup... I've looked around and came across these and was looking for some feedback:

Enkei FD-05 - 18x7.5 with 45 offset...

Wrapped in these Yokohama S Drive Tires - 225/40R-18

I did some crappy photochopping and they look good on my BSP... I searched the fourms to see if anyone had these, but I didn't come across anything... If anyone has these rims on their tC please post some pictures...

Here is the Photoshop picture I spent a magical 2 minutes on... Just to give you a general idea...

*Note that I sized up the factory 17" when I did this picture...

I think these rims will look nice on the car...

Which rims would some of you guys recommend for around $200 a piece?... How about the Tenzo Type-M Black with machined lip?...

18x8 +45mm

This is why I hate pictures

... They look like they went inward... How far do they stick out past the rim?... Any other suggestions?...

Thanks for the side pictures... Ya, I guess I'm going to keep looking around for different rims then

... If anyone has any personal recommendations, post the company and a pic if you have one handy... Ideally, I would like a black rim with a machined lip...
