Here they are on my car... Still have to figure out what to do about the center caps. I am thinking I might paint them black and go with some black lug nuts. What do you think?

You could go with the STi center caps from Teague's Auto. :) North Ursalia has them on his car, which has '98 gold 5-spokers. They're really very unique, mostly unknown, and look good on gold/bronze wheels.

(They're also listed in the NASIOC Products section, under center caps.)
The wheels look great!!!

You need some lower profile tires.

I had the same problem which is why I decided to go black instead of bronze. That being said, do your best to get a bronze paint that matches and see how they turn out. When I painted mine I was sure they would look funny because the painted black didn't exactly match with the powder coat black but now that they are on you can't tell. I would give it a shot if you don't want to spring for the caps mentioned above.
BTW: The car looks good. Very similar to mine.

Looks good. :) I just got myself a set of 6-spoke RS wheels for my WRX, but i'll be keeping them silver for now. :D

not only do i like the look of the six spoke better (they also stick out farther giving a more aggressive look), but they are a lot easier to clean as well!
