I'm also looking at 'classy' mods for my AWD sedan when it comes in. They'll have to be 'sensible' mods too, as I'll have to contend with some of the worst road surfaces in the entire US, plus going up to Tahoe during winters.

I agree that mesh seems to look best, and I prefer wheels without rivets/fasteners all the way around the rim. I recently ran across ISS Forged, and really like the SPIA and FM10 wheel from them, and also the Mesh 10 from 360 Forged.

I am in the same dilemma. I want to upgrade from stock but dont want to diverge too far from the normal course... (Im not very flashy). I was considering possibly GT-R rims which is nice b/c they are OEM, but not convinced on the whole gun metal look.

britishmutt, I share your opinion on the rivets etc.... and really like those ISS Forged SPIA...how much do those run? anyone?

According to Tray @ Forged Performance, figure around $4k for a set of 18".

This is My IP with 82 Vossens. click below to go to my Thread.
I Liked the sport wheels too, I actually ended up bending one, thats the reason I went with aftermarket, and now I love these vossens.

Vosssen doesn't have any 18" mesh-style wheels (they barely have any 18" anything, unless you want the more expensive forged ones). The only mesh they have, the VVS094, is only available in 20". It's a nice wheel, but too big for my car and I'm sure would be more than $4k. The 083 would probably be my next choice, but I'm not a big fan of the rivets.
