Default new rims

ordering my new rims on Sept. 1st guys. i'm definately going with deep dish 17x10.5's in the rear, in order to keep running my 275/40/r17 DR's, and i'd definately prefer to stick with 17's in the front, just because tires are so expensive, especially on 18's, and i definately would like to go with black, preferably with a chrome/polished lip. what do you guys think, and other suggestions are extremely appreciated.

Alot of people have FR500s but NOT alot of people have black chrome FR500s, which is what I'm gonna be ordering, possibly tonight! If your car is white some black FR500s or black Bullitts would look sick as hell

I loved my Cobra R's from AFS (ebay)... Great wheel for the price... I've been through 4 sets in a year. And the next set might just be a 17/18 combo. I was passed by a Jackass yellow 94/95 yesterday and couldn't take my eyes off his setup.

All I have to suggest is leave the Cobra R's to the SN95's.

Other than that, as far as I'm concerned if you go with black wheels, they all end up with pretty much the same look.
