depends on what you want to spend.

I suggest for budgeting...CCW: http://www.ccwheel.com/files/home.php

I just went with iForged this time: www.iforged.com

Or try HRE: http://www.hrewheels.com/home/

HRE are top notch, iForged a close second. CCW's, can't beat the price!

Looking good, you need to hardwire your radar detector.

I was having the same issues with trying to decide on a rim and I had a hard time finding a rim that would fit the stock tires.
I love the look of chrome rims so I decided to do the chrome wheel exchange at West Coast Corvettes. They also have other rim choices.
Check them out.
Nice picture
