Rota Wheel Fitment and Where to buy

Ok I had some enkei wheels but after seeing pics of the Rota wheels on a few FRS and reading on them I have narrowed it down to

Rota Torques or Grinds in that order. Also who has fair pricing on the wheels and what tires I should go with for spirited driving

I am thinking of about a 1 inch drop on the vehicle but I am unsure of 17 or 18 for size.

What I am looking to attempt to achieve is very little wheel gap I will post a picture I wouldnt mind this but would prefure a little bit more space.

Wheeldude.com is popular with a lot of people for Rota. 17 vs 18 can be a long debate just by itself. The car in the pic is on 18s. As for tires, it depends on weather conditions and other expectations.
