I like round wheels. They are rather common these days .. but still, there is something right that feels about them.

Whatever you pick, make sure you get some spacers with camber built in. That way you can save money on suspension!!

To give you a non-bullshitted answer;

The enkei RPF1's are a very very popular choice for wheels from enthusiasts on theses forums. They are lightweight and relatively inexpensive. I personally like the Enkei RS05RR's better than the RPF1.

I have Rays 57xtreme's on my car and they are one of the best looking wheels for this car. They have a very nice concave shape with beautiful centercaps.

It's all going to come down to personal preference and your budget.. Like for example I like the Volk TE37's in the double pressed graphite but those are $800+ a wheel and will be a goal for me to own one day but I sure do love my current Rays as well.
