What are your plans with the car? Do you have examples of fitment, (both tire to fender, and tire/wheel ratio) that you DO like/would like to replicate?

When you say you don't want to affect performance/handling, do you mean you want it to handle EXACTLY how is does now? No better/no worse?

When you say you don't want them to poke out, do you want them to be as flush as possible without going past, or just 'as long as they aren't poking I don't care'

I'm a huge fan of the Enkei wheels, as they are really good quality for the money, (and meet your 'black' criteria.)

If you want a nice little upgrade while you're buying wheels and tires, take a look at something like this:
Enkei RPF1, 17x8, between +35 and +42, depending on if you intend to lower at all. Go square, then add 3mm slip on spacers in the rear and it will look very even, and you won't need bolt on spacers, or extended lugs, and you won't need two different wheel offsets.

I really like a 225/45-17 Bridgestone S-04 or Michelin PSS on those wheels. There will be about the same amount of 'stretch' as the stock wheel and tire package has, but the tires will be a nice upgrade, offering stiffer sidewalls, and more grip!

The RPF1's look nice, are light, and are pretty strong without breaking the bank. Most of their wheels do pretty well also, but there's a lot of personal preference.
