id go with some sort of dish. it gives any car the extreme performance looks and a sense of styling. i wouldn't go anything tooo extreme like the ones from veilside with like 6" lips. id go with something that has a 2" - 3" lip that is polished. i wouldn't go no lip cuz it doesn't look unique. also, most JDM cars like the skyline, EVO VIII, sylvia drift cars all have rims with major lip...just in case you like the JDM look..i know i do

Nothing makes your car look faster and more powerful than a set of deep dish rims

I have 17x7.5 Racing Hart C2 Evo's, the lip on them are fatter than a **** stars

Personally, I like thin crust or deep dish. I'd stay away from hand tossed.

Still, by deep dish, do you mean like RWD high offset? I think that would look terrible. I also think that going widebody style on a FWD Lancer would look silly. But, perhaps you might post a picture of the rim so I can get idea of what you're talking about.
