In the same boat as you and will probably end up with RPF01's as well..

Can't find a set of wheels that I like that are light and available in 5x100

XD-9's were my first choice but the lack of lip in the sizes that'll fit makes it a no go..

XT-7's have some concavity, look acceptable, and come in the perfect size/offset.. but 18x8.5's weigh ~25lbs

Love the look of RG-D's but I can't find a spec sheet on them anywhere.. The only 5x100's I found were 18x9 and that's larger than I'd like in the front.

Personally I think RPF01's look bland.. but you really can't beat them for the price/weight.. I was planning on getting 17x8's and running 235/40's for performance.. but I'll likely split the difference and go 18x8.

Loose some performance.. but it looks a little better to me..

There are some "okay" reasonably priced wheels/light out there just have to look
