My page has a couple of shots.  I need to take some more, I'll be putting 
more up soon.  Actually there's only 1 pic that shows the wheels, another
has Potter's auto-x rims on it and the only other one is the engine bay..
I have a few others, I'll email them to you off the list.

I think they fill the wheelwells perfectly.  The offset looks fine too (the
other pics I will email you have a good angle to show the offset).  And
don't forget the advantage of less weight in a 15 vs 16" wheel... unsprung
weight is NOT a good thing.
