    Hi Anthony,

    It depends on your taste in wheels. Wheels are a personal preference and what you like may be ugly to somebody else. But it is your car so do what you want :supergrin Most of the wheels that are sold at a reputable shop like The Tire Rack or Discount Tire are solid and will last. But other aftermarkets are POS and not the same as OEM. You cannot beat the quality of OEM, but the BBS wheels are a huge PITA to keep clean. If you go aftermarket, remember that a wheel/tire package includes mounting and balancing so you are saving a bit there as well.

    Good Luck,
    Rory
