Some other wheels I deal with are Avante Garde wheels. A lot of the BMW and Porsche guys run these.
sizes range from 17 inches and up for around $1000 a set. M22 M310 M359 |

I've had my eye on a set of Enkei wheels for a while. You can always consult tirerack. I like them because they list the wheel weights as well! They are experts. How can you go wrong? God speed!

For wheels it's either Enkei or Kosei for me... those are proven wheels that don't cost much. Spending over $1k on a set of wheel makes no sense to me for a daily driver.
"Track set" (which I've been daily driving on for a while now...) - Kosei K4R (17x8 with 36mm offset, 15.6lbs) $199 each: "Daily Driver set" - Enkei Fujin (17x7.5 with 40mm offset, 17.0lbs) $180 each: As you can see by the closeups, both these wheels are well engineered with minimal stress risers in the design.

I wish Kosei made the new K2R in a 17" size and with 5x100 bolt pattern....I love nice wide 5's designs for a daily wheel, and this is just gorgeous:
