Awesome

...Any chance of getting one more for me in the same design??

Viper, OZ has lots of neat models, some which I like more than this cycle spoke type. however 8-10k a freken piece is nowhere in the vicinity of my personal budget however BlackPearl if thats not a issue look no further than OZ / BBS etc.

8-10k a piece? Dream on. This is closer to 50k, and I'm not even sure that's for 5.

However you should go to eCatalogDX
choose your wheels from there. Maybe narrow down to 3-4 serial numbers and go check them out at your local wheel shop.

The Blue Baleno shown here is a left hand drive. Hence cannot be from UK. More over UK was more hatchback.
Suzuki marketed Baleno in USA from 1997 to 2002 under the name 'Esteem'. I think the engine was 1.8 L. Looking at the chrome rims, it is more likely from US.
