Default Rota pic request

Im considering options for wheels for my blob and am considering a set of rota grid drifts, I was wondering if people with these on their newages could post a pic of these so I can see the difference in look between the 8.5" and 9.5". Also if anyone's got other rota drifts on newage I'm still open to suggestion so please feel free to post too

I love the look of the 9.5" wide grid drifts but I use my blob as a daily driver doing 50 miles a day so dont fancy running coilovers which everyone (including me going by pics I've seen) thinks you need to pull these off along with rolling the arches. I've currently got a set of prodrive springs which I would be willing to swap over for lower springs but really don't think coilovers are a good idea for me.
Also I'm running 225/40s on my current 18s, I believe these would be fine for 8.5" wide but what would I need if I were to go for the 9.5"?
Opinions welcome.

Looks nice, what suspension/drop are you running and have you got any rubbing or had to roll the arches for them to fit without any scrubbing?

I have no idea how much the drop is, it scrubs with rear passengers and sometimes on bumps. Arches need rolling. I can also get the rears to rub when cornering :-P
