Default What Wheels To Get?

Hey, im new here and im looking to get new wheels/tires for my sc300. I have my eye on these with a 35 profile tire.





Any thoughts on nice wheels with more wheel and less 'air'? thanks guys

Its the (diamomd?) pearl white sc3. Trying to keep it under $2k including tires. With those wheels and tires I chose on tire rack are around $1700. So no $1000/wheel BBS
