Wow, they're perfect on the GC8!

Do you know if they clear the AP Racing front 5x100 330mm CP5570 brake kit?

Cheers dude. That's awesome.

How much for a set of 4 in gold?

And how much for a set with, say, 235/35R17 Michelin Super Sport pre-fitted and balanced?

Or falling that tyre size, then 235/40R17?

Or falling that size, then 225/35R17 (I don't think you can get the ideal 225/40R17 size... Why don't manufacturers do this size? ).
