They are not bad but....I like your old BB's better. I even like OEM better esthetically. If you don't love them then you already answered your own question.
I know like the LM, if they were 18" they would look great but, in 17" the design is a bit tight

looks like the rear could use a spacer, maybe 5 or 10 mm.
I did not think of that Also maybe a color or hue change
I think they are a little like a BBS LM and RGR mixed

I think that they look great but, they also look like they would be a major pain to clean....?

I think I like the look of these new ones better, Ben.

They are more aggresive and "raceready" at least in look. I think LM's would look out of place with how aggresive your car looks now with the splitters. You are right on the razors edge between "street clean" and "race ready" IMHO

Running something like the LM would look (to me) like you were not sure which way you were wanting to go.

Would look nice with the center spokes painted/powder coated a different color.

I like the look a lot. Hopefully the offsets will allow you to go to a 265 on the rear. I think that would give you the look you want.

They look fantastic, very tasteful
cheers!
Oscar

EDIT: I agree about the rear wheels, they look a "bit" just a bit weird .. the wheels itself look great!

The Simmons wheel company makes racing wheels in Australia. The wheels are made to order and are a 3 piece design, so that if damage happens it can be repaired. They make wheels in magnesium and aluminum. They are street/racing wheels and are between 18 to 20 pounds each with the tire mounted.

they look good. if the rear stuck out a bit more they would be perfect. i would do what radiozero said, then they'd be perfect.
