I'm looking for some lightweight, 5 spoke 17" wheels. I prefer the "beefier" look on our cars, since our car has a beefy stance. I'm having a very hard time finding them. Would like to be under $1000 for rims..thanks. Any suggestions?

with you I think you should also consider the wieght of the wheel as long as the look. You dont wanna handicap your factoryfreak with a set of heavyass wheels.
Id say get under 20 lbs.

I thought you were planning on getting rota slipstreams?

Oh no I'm definitely looking for lightweight wheels..less than 17lbs preferably. I was thinking the slipstreams but then I wasn't so sure..because I'd want them in silver because I think black rims on my car would look like my steelies from far away, and I don't want that. I was thinking 5zigen Fn01r's (14.6 lbs for the 17) but they have thin spokes..they look good on the 6th gen photoshop from v6p..but still I'm not so sure. Plus I'm coming to the realization that 16s are too small (imo)..so I'd like to go with 17s

Here's the link

I think 5zigens look great on coupes, on sedans not so much, check out crono139's ride.

IMO you cant go wrong with slips or 5zigens and 16's are fine as long as youre dumped!
