Supra Wheels on a RX-7?

If you've seen the following thread, you may have noted the Supra wheels on a 1st gen for sale:

I didn't realize that Toyota wheels would fit on a 7 -- new info!

What do you all think of the look? I know it's not mesh or a Panasport... but it doesn't look bad IMO... thoughts?

P.S. the tires look too big.... I wonder if they rub.

That car sucks.

The widebody going together behind it has possibility, though

they really don't look good on a supra most surely not on a 7. Maybe if you're trying to give it a confused muscle car look or something.
