EB GT's will look much better than in the photo shop.
IMO gold rims tend to suit black or maroon/red/burgundy coloured cars but chuck them on and see how they look.
Both rims (the 19's and the 8.5" wide EB GT's will void your insurance) :P haha, someone had to be a spoil sport.
EB GT 17's + Girlfriend is better than 19's and no GF. Shame on some of you guys.

RACT will let me slide with 17 x 8.5, they did with the EB.

19's and I would have had to change to Just Cars, it was only another 150 a year, cost won't kill me, woman will

Go the EB GTs! If the 19s are buggin you that much I'd just spoil her for a few weeks (dinners and stuff) and then let her know how much it's getting you down. I've been through this before. It's (eventually) win/win.

i dont like the look of the EB GT all together let alone the rims on your car.

i reckon you should stick with the XR rims until something better comes along. surely someone must want to buy the GT rims from you maybe your asking too much?

i saw turboblades on an EF the other day and it was totally WHACK
