Default Works Meister S2R? or Prodrive GC-07C? or..., 17" Only Though

Guys & Gals,

I'm considering upgrading my MY02 wheels (with the OEM Bridgestone RE050 tires in mind) and I've narrowed it down to a few options:

1. Works Meister S2R, 17X7.5 Front, 17X9.0 Rear, offset unknown

2. Prodrive GC-07C, 17X7.5 Front +48mm offset, 17X8.5 Rear +54mm offset

3. SSR GT1, 17X7.5 Front, 17X8 Rear, offset unknown (TireRack)

4. SSR Competition, 17X8 Front, 17X9 Rear, offset unknown (TireRack)

1. & 2. are from www.scienceofspeed.com whereas 3. & 4. are from TireRack...

My questions are:

1. Please let me know which you'd choose, providing the offset are right.

2. Why are the tires associated with 3. & 4. (TireRack) have 205/50-17 front & 225/45-17? whereas on MY04 (& 05) they are 215/50-17 front & 245/50-17 rear?

I kinda know which one I like the best but I'd love to hear your suggestions. Also, I do want them to (at least) weigh about the same as my MY02's (i.e. wheel + tire) if not lighter. Also, please let me know if there's another place that sell the Work or Prodrive wheels cheaper than the aforementioned site.

Your opinions are greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance,

K

p.s. my baby is bone stock (i.e. not modded & lowered) that I intend to keep it that way.

Thanks for the comment!

How does it compare to SSR GT1 or Works S2R? Which one's the strongest?

Prodrive rims are stout. Lots of comments on the internet about people bending SSRs.
