Crowdscoured: Help me find a set of wheels for my FR-S

Looking for a bit of help in selecting a wheel pattern/color for my dark grey (asphalt) FR-S. The bolt pattern is 5x100 and I am thinking 18x8.5-9.5 on the width. I should note, I DO care about weight. Keep em light

Color is easily one of my favorites of the car, however it is very hard to pair with a set of wheels and not look straight up rice.

If all of you are anything like me, you've spent too much time perusing the web and may have come across some cool combo, please show them to me! My current top choices...\

The STI-formence concept has some neat wheels too. If that's your taste.

Trying to stay under or near $3500 for the wheel/tire combo. I want quality, but can't afford BBS.

Heres some pictures of different wheels on the FRS

Just scroll down a bit.

I personally like the Weds.

A swell choice, sometimes look oddly small even in 18"?

Member on the forums. Lots of sick wheels, not enough pictures on the Dark Grey color.

I was going to put TE37s on mine, but those Gram Lights look sick!

Holy shit, thanks for this. When it comes time to buy new wheels for mine, it will be an invaluable resource.

I think I could seek advice, we seem to have similar taste in wheels. I love those Gram Lights though. I've been looking at knockoffs cause I'm a cheap bastard, but going to lower my car first and see how that looks.

edit: well, looks like FR-S has very different offsets to my car. I need closer to +15

I have a Ultramarine FR-S. I might eventually drop it a bit, but rims first. I'm not a big fan of dark rims, especially on dark cars, so I'm planning on getting something white for contrast.

After that I was thinking of doing a whiteout on the black plastics in the grill and out back.

Ha! I copied the URL of the same 57 Xtreme pic before I realized you posted it as a favorite. They look amazing on the FRS and BRZ ... Definitely my first wheel of choice after a year of searching.
