You have good taste, don't worry about it

I think those ridiculous clear wheels are worth a thought, they could be pretty aerodynamic, although they probably weigh a lot and I'd be concerned about durability.

Nah, you don't need to worry about that. 24's will totally clear the 20" brake rotors that you'll be using to keep the temps down. And as a bonus, the clear wheels will let everyone see your sick BBK.

Winrar.

I'm a fan of stepped lips and curved spokes.

I know they're light, but I hate wheels like the CCW's Corsair series. Flat spokes, sometimes no lip, they look like WRC wheels. I am not a fan.

I love wheels that have a concave look to them. Nice brushed aluminum texture and really thats it.

I look for this! It's not perfect, I did it with 0 dimensions, just by eye, and I should probably mess with my settings a bit since it doesn't look very round.
