Default Looking for new wheels..

I am a beginner at knowing wheel brands and reputations of various companies..

My ride.. 2005 Honda Civic LX 4dr. Sedan..
My budget for wheels and tires..... $2k

Can you guys give me some company and or various wheel suggestions.. I would really really like to run 17" wheels.. I am though willing to look at 16"..

Thanks for all of your help.. I do appreciate the input and respect the opinons of the people on these boards..

wtf. well theres normally 2 paths people go. 1st path: expensive "real" or non knockoff wheels. Such as Volk or Enkei. Path 2: Knockoffs such as rotas. Choose what you want then decide

I was looking at some ICW racing wheels.. I am not going to be racing I just liked the look.. I think it was the ICW 004's.. I just want some good wheels that will last.. they were only like $136 a wheel.. A little worried on thier preformance..

$2k is a lot for wheels/tires, u can def. get something real nice...

www.tirerack.com has a good section of both. you can also bring up a picture of ur model car and pick out a set of wheels to put on it to get an idea of what it looks like.
