they look like work cr kiwami/rota torque replicas.
most likely 18x9.5 with low ''GTR'' offset like +12/+20. Don't forget that he has the WRC wide arches. It wont look the same on stock-body car
Similar to TOTO's rota grids set up
IMO 8.5'' with lower offset (sub +30) or 9'' with neutral offset (around +45) would be perfect with the side lines of the car. My own are 9'' +35 an are minimal out (hardly noticing)
yours are 17x8 +53. the only way to bring them out is at least 15mm spacers, then extended studs and potential future issues with hub bearings imo is not worth it. If you want the flush look better off go for another 'show' set of wheel and keep the bbs for daily/track. Looks and drive-ability never come together its either one or the other. if it looks good on photos will be useless on the backroads. I learn it the hard way with curbed wheels and ripped inner arch liners
I guess the drop in sterling prompted this to be brought in. No drop in annual road tax though. Much as I'd like one looks expensive compared to an rs, whatever about a golf r
