Default rims rims rims rims rims?

I am having a REALLy hard time deciding on what wheels to get for my silverstone. I see sooo many different sizes and brands. I was wanting the D2's but they really do seem heavy. I have about 1200 to blow on just rims, i want 17s or 18s something clean that will looks very cool when slammed fenders are rolled and ready. just waitin on my coilovers then I can order. Any suggestions??

edit: daily driven, and occasional gettin on it on the highway.. dont want it to be any slower then with the stock wheels.

IMO Work CR's are the most "exotic" wheels in that price range, though a tad on the heavy side. RPF-1's are also nice, plus they're light. ASA's are juuust good enough to be put on an S2000, so check those out too. Anything else worth mentioning is over $1200.

RPF1s or CR-KAIs would probably be your best bets. RPF1s are also very light.

I agree with all said: Work emotions CR-Kais, RPF1s, or if you can, SSR Type C

I have a silverstone too... one setup I think would look hot but have not seen is to run a work xt7 but go with an aggressive offset and get the concave face for the rear.

17X8 +47 and 17X9 +44

I dont think they concave as much as cr kai's but it should look dope since no one is running this setup.

Oh and I am seriously considering a set of white wheels... so yeah get them in white... then post pics!

5 Zigen has some new wheels that may work. They are pretty sick too.
