I need some opinions on new wheels since mine were stolen. I thought I had my mind made up, but now I've come across a few others that I like. Normally I'd buy something that stands out and is unique, but I'm probably going to sell the car within the next 6 months (to buy a Telsa P85 ) so I want to get something that will appeal to the masses. So I thought I'd ask for a public opinion on my top 10 choices. All of them are 19's except for #9 which are 20's.
And I'm not going to list brands and models because I know some people are bais towards certain brands and prejudiced against others, although I'm sure the wheel gurus will recognize most of them. In exchange for your help, if any of you are in the market for wheels and you'd like to see a particular wheel on your car just PM me a pic of your car (straight on from the side from about 10ft away) and tell me the wheel make/model/finish and I'll do my best to get back to you with a rendering.
EDIT: It looks like #10 might need to be removed from this list, I've called a few places for price quotes and nobody has them and they've been discontinued. So please don't vote for #10 anymore, even though they were one of my favorites!
if youre going to sell it, just get an oem for now. however, i like #3 and #9.
I thought about that, but I'm only selling it if I find the right deal on a Tesla. Might be a few months, might be a year, so I'd rather get something I'll be able to enjoy in the meantime.
And if you get that Tesla, you definitely have to post pics. That car has moved on to my very, very short list of cars I'd definitely want to get to replace the ISF.

Have you driven one yet? If not, drive one and it'll move to the ONLY car on that list! Especially the P85 or the new P85D. They are insane; 443 lb·ft (or 687 lb·ft for the P85D) of torque at 0rpm can't even be described - it must be experienced! When I got back in my F after test driving one I couldn't believe how SLOOOOW it felt! LOL.
Where is the photo of the Stock Wheels
So I can Vote???

The only OEM wheel I really like is the '12+ model, and I saw a few of those sell for between $1,500-$2,000 within the last few months, but of course when I need them none are available.
I vote for lightweight wheels :
#3 volk or rays g25
#10 weds sa67r. Are you sure you can not find this wheels?
#7 It looks like cf5v from forgestar.
I agree with going lightweight on any aftermarket wheels, but with this purchase it's not much of a concern because I may not have it much longer.
And as for the SA67R's, I had Vivid (right down the street from me) call Weds and they said they have none in their warehouse and don't know of any dealers who have any on hand either. And I may need to cross the Forgestars off the list too since I hear the wait can be brutal with them and right now my car is on jack stands, and as a realtor I don't want to keep driving around in my 13 year old 160k mile truck with faded paint. LOL.
Having secured arguably the last set of SA67R's at the beginning of the year, I can confirm they have been discontinued.
What about some of the other styles from Wedsport though??
Did see a second hand set of the SA67R's in the IS-F classifieds? Had a bit of curbing, but nothing you couldn't refurb easily? Might be another option to consider?
