Eh--just get rotas-they have polished lip options on alot of wheels--not to mention about half the cost of everything else worthwhile...
some rims are definately better than others, cheaper ones can have a tendancy to get bent easily, or if cheaply manufactured, may not hold air pressure...
I saw a set of WAL-MART wheels that had holes in the casting...
Buy for the look that you want, but spend SOME money...you'll be glad you did...
