Help with selecting wheels
I have OEM 20inch wheels which I'd like to set aside. Been looking for some aftermarkets and wasn't sure if there was a general consesus on where to and where not to purchase wheels from.

Whatever you choose, just make sure you select the offsets that does not deviate a lot from the factory specs, otherwise, your new wheels could have rubbing issue.

Stock size with additional offset (+15mm front, +12mm rear) looks aggressive, no spacers to deal with, and fits without rubbing.
As to who to buy from - there are many, many wheel companies and no one has experience with them all so no one can give you a definitive answer. Depends on the style/construction you want. Find that and then research the vendor. Know that there are many vendors that don't actually make their wheels, they just have them made from a manufacturer.

Also are you looking mainly at looks, or strength, or weight savings, or a combination?

On the full CF ones I wonder how well the resin on the lips hold up after multiple tire changes.
