Default please help me decide on rims for my black gsr

its been months and i STILL can NOT decide on what rims i like. i guess i havent seen enough. i am GENERALLY not a fan of bronze / black/ gunmetal colored rims, but i am open to anything. im more of a silver kinda person. im looking for something 17" that are pretty light. im asking you guys for help cause i dont know what to do. i need lots of pics of dark colored tegs with rims on to decide. im considering these rims right now...

konig holes



rota msv



rota impact



rh evoloution C5 (they are too damn heavy though..i think)




i dunno what any of these really weigh..anyone got actual weights? 17" ? so can you guys help me find something? thanks.

I like the impacts the best out of the ones that you posted. I would look at tires.com as well and see what rims they have. They have good deals and a large selection. There are a lot of sites you can check.

With the exception of the Evolution C5, I think your stock wheels look better than the others pictured. The other wheels listed weigh at least 18 lbs minimum, if not more.

For black cars, I'm a big fan of polished alloys (eg. stock GSR blades), although a polished lip looks pretty slick as well.

Do they even make the Impacts anymore? I remember those wheels back in the days when Work and Sparco wheels were popular...

tirerack.com doesn't offer the wheels he wants, thus can't show what they look like on the car.
