Thanks guys.

Wheels are K-Speed 6 spoke, Full black.

The Fits in the U.S are much better looking than what the fits/jazzes are over here in Australia.

They have subtle differences that make it tad more sportier.

I like the black out theme. the base in other countries look less "cheap".

Just out of curiosity, how's the gas mileage and performance (particularly acceleration) after adding the 18's?

Dont see alot of difference with the performance, i just think i always got a passenger with the extra weight of the wheels.

Gas mileage before i got 500km per litre on a tank now i get 400km.

Not sure how much that is Miles per gallon.

Yeh mate im from Sydney.

Hmmm....that is a 20% hit in mileage. Looks nice, but not worth it IMO.

Yep, if your that concerned with gas mileage, definitely not the way to go.
