Ok guys...I need a hand finding some wheels

Hey guys I am calling for some help here. I have looked all over for some good 17"x 8.5" +30mm offset, light weight, black wheels or a anthracite color (its darker than gunmetal) with a polished lip for the '04 White RS here. Well hell even some nice gunmetal wheels with a polished lip would possibly work but perferably black. We had a set of the limited edition Gloss black / polished lip Volk LE37's on order that they debuted at SEMA but the date kept getting pushed back month after month. We have seen a few wheels we like here but it seems they are discontinued or something. I would appreciate any help any of you out there are willing to offer as I am out of places to search. Thanks in advance guys!!!!

I do like those. Only bad thing is the are 17lbs. Looking for something around the 15lb range or so. I would order these in the forged but the one guy I talked to said they would take forever as they come from Japan. Any other input would be good because I do like these wheels. Thanks!

You should really consider those FN01-RCs. They look good and they are cheap. You don't need a lot of wheel $$$ adding to your build-up cost for the C&D writeup. I think the 5Zigens fit the Buschur image (bang per buck with just a little bling) perfectly.

Robi says the NT03+M Enkeis.....They have hyper black. May not fit your color desire......Performance wise, the brace ring adds structural stiffness to side wall. Would look great and perform in the C&D test!!!!!!
