Also a big fan of the old SSR Intrigal. One of the sweetest, cleanest designs ever.

I think HRE should be represented. Consider the HRE C95. Not sure how much they weigh (they are targeted at the sport/performance market to "minimize unsprung weight") but if you have six grand you can grab a set and slip 'em on the old bathroom scales.

I'm currently in the search for some 5 spoke wheels w/ some sort of dish in either gunmetal or black, but am having a hard time finding anything I like that will fit the S2000, anyone have suggestions? I like the look of the Volk SF-challenge rims, but don't really want to shell out that much cash. Do those Volks come in gunmetal or just black?
Any help appreciated, I'm getting frustrated finding a set!

After just looking around some more I found this website that has some good options (love the 5 spoke G-games in gunmetal)--http://www.wheelsdirectonline.com/--but still a lot of them look like they wouldn't be available in staggered fitments, which has been my problem so far with finding some good rims.
Any other large wheels sites like this other than the obvious tire rack, discount tire direct?

Gram light Pro Titan. I would LOVE to get my TE37's polished and get the lips done like these.

btw, those gram lights (cast wheel) in standard 17" sizes are approx. $3k for a set!!!

A few years ago, I think it was a guy from GT-Motoring said he might be able to do the finish, but I never heard back from him. Trust me, I would LOVE to do it!!
