I have the 17" Volans in anthracite (I would have just called them gunmetal) on my T5, and I really like the way they look. They do ride a bit rougher, but there are always trade-offs. Also, there is a bit of rubbing at full lock with 215/45/17 tires. I was able to get them for dirt cheap, and was able to get some sticky summer tires on them, so I'm happy.

Bad picture follows. Stock T5 "turbine" wheels are back on for now (cold, wet weather around here).

Bottom line = if you like the looks, go for it.
