you will need smaller head wheel bolts for the PES wheels - I use a 17mm head, cone seat. Most wheel shops will have them in stock. Thread pitch is 14x1.5mm

Is the gunmetal color the standard color for these wheels?

I got a set of RS171s coming in and was thinking of getting them painted, this might be a nice choice.

they work great. my observations are:
- not too much of a drop (~3/4"?) but front airdam will scrape
- slighter firmer ride and get rid of pogo stick effect with pasm

Nice wheels ! I think the brushed will look great on your midnight car . I have the TA springs and love them . You will notice a big difference (drive/appearance) and it's all good!
