#88411, "Rims... yeah... for the billionth time on the forums..."

I have narrowed my choices down to three (for now anyways)
So which one do you guys like most, and do you think they are worth the money?

EDIT: My car will be 2Gb style with GSX wing, pearl orange with VIS EVO style CF hood with a pearl orange look to it.

RACING HART C5 - Black w/Polished Lip
18" Wheel/Tire Pack (225/40/18) $1399.00/ea (does that really mean each?!? that's a lot)
http://www.wheelsnext.com/product.phtml?p=1329


18" MEAN 6 Black w/Polished Lip 18" Wheel/Tire Pack (225/40/18) $1199.00/ea
http://www.wheelsnext.com/product.phtml?p=1560


17" VX-6R GUNMETAL E 17x7.5 Each Wheel $175.00/ea
I really don't like this one as much... but it's cheaper.

My only problem with the third one is that it is Gun Metal... I'm not sure how that would look with an otherwise ALL orange and BLACK car.

I like the first set the best. I dunno, I just dont like the rims that are universal and have 15 different holes for lug patterns, the first set I think looks more clean.

92 Laser AWD- has a lot done, needs a lot more...

That's what I thought, but that IS what it says on the site... it is a wheel and tire combo, but that's still a lot... If it's for all four, then I probably will go with one of the top to... can't decide on which for sure yet... probably the second one though.

I saw a wheels next ad in a magazine yesterday, and for the first wheel i have up there, it didn't say it was for each... so i'm thinking that is a set of 4... but i dont know... I guess I will have to email them.

It's definately a set of four. It says wheel and tire PACKAGE. That means you get the whole set. I've never seen a regular 18 inch wheel cost $1400.
