vantage alloys n400 or dbs?

hi guys need your help, recently bought a Vantage v8 Roadster, iv had the guys a paramount performance remap the car, bought larini cats and know looking to change the wheels!

I really like the N400 alloys i love the graphite look and even the DBS style in graphite! but these to buy from the dealer are a bomb! wanted to know if anyone knew of any reps or brands that give that very similar look (oem)? if not im thinking to get these http://www.pistonheads.com/SALES/1552263.htm
only issue i have they are in 20" and am worried if they will fit ok?? also these seem to have the black inside rather then the graphite so not sure if they will look cheap?? any opinions would be great!

No worries, just interested. Paramount sells a lot of RSC stuff!

Hey Billy, how much do the DBS alloys go for in the market? Not through the dealer but in general, I couldn't find any on ebay to see how much they are..
