Why don't you start with...

1) Budget
2) Style
3) Finish (Chrome, Polish or silver etc..)
3) Staggered or not...

Just a few suggestions

This gallery has some nice looks. A few years back the HRE were hot on this board and there tended to be a lot of wheel "hatin" on many styles. Much more respect for the wide variety of tastes these days.

There are lots of options, here's just a few pics to give you an idea

I'll start with MRR which are under 1500 for 20" wheels alone

Get some used wheels because for that price WITH tires. Its going to be hard to find a good set of wheels and tires at that price. Whatever wheel you go make sure the offset is low and the tires are stretched, hehe.

Default Wheels

You can get a set of Axis wheels for about $1400 or so.. Alot of distributors have them just check ebay.

I just bought a set of 20" staggered Axis Mods in black for $1450 shipped.

The deals are around just need to look for them.

Thanks
