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?
Where did you see those? Only set of SA67R's that I could find in the classifieds were from last August.
EDIT: Never mind, found them. Doesn't seem like that great of a deal since they have some curb rash and 15K miles for $1,750, and they were only around $2,000-$2,200 delivered brand new. Plus they are matte bronze, I would only want them in gunmetal (pictured in #10) or BLC.
So I'm down to my final 2 choices - one of which is a set that I almost ordered the other day before having second thoughts, the other is a used set from another forum member. I also really liked #8 (Forgestar C5VF) but don't want to be without wheels for several months while they are custom made.
Thoughts on these two? I updated both renderings with more accurate color.
Here's a different rendering on a professional pic of a SGM F. The Ace Mesh 7 on the bottom were photographed on the car (in 20") and the Vossen VFS1 on top was photoshopped.
Good Lord man... Just pick a wheel that YOU want and that YOU think looks best on YOUR car. Are you really basing your choice on other people's opinions?

Did you read the original post?
"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"
That's why I'm getting opinions on what other people think looks good, because what I like myself isn't always the same as what others will like. Normally I couldn't care less about what others think of my wheels, but I don't want my wheel choice to make my car harder to sell when it comes time, and I also don't want to just put stockers on it either. And not to sound like an ***, but if you don't want to give any input or read the thread - then don't click on it.
honestly bro.......none of them. I like more mesh styles or lots of spokes personally. LOL I was going to say 10 too. Do a set of Vossens like RelineAZ's. I hung out with him yesterday and his ISF is the baddest I have ever seen. Those wheels look AMAZING in person.

Well #9 is actually the Vossen VFS1 - same wheel as RedlineAZ's VFS2 but with 10 spokes instead of 15. And #4 is a mesh style, it's the Ace Mesh 7.
And I would've gone with #10 if they were still available anywhere.
If you are planning to sell the car, you really ought to just buy oem wheels. Any aftermarket wheel is going to be hit and miss for prospective buyers. I personally like most of your choices but I wouldn't pay more for a car that had any of them on.

If I could find a set of '12+ wheels at a good price I'd do that in a heartbeat. Those are the only OEM's I'd want to get though.
If you're getting the insurance money you mentioned in your other thread, maybe get something nice like adv.1 or bc forged. Just find something that isn't too wild, can be made quickly and don't go too crazy on width so you can run 245/35 - 275/30 on them. Keep an eye out for a set of OEM after you get the wheels and just swap them on when you sell the car. You could then probably sell your nice barely-used custom wheels on these forums (maybe need a vouch.)
Maybe its too much effort, and it might not be the most cost-effective path to take, but it may be better than selling the car with the aftermarket wheels, and in your situation it's something I'd consider.

I had considered something like that. I was going to buy a set of 08-09 or 12+ OEM's to have right now, and also order a set of custom made wheels, then swap them when they came in. And then I'd put the OEM's back on the car to sell it and sell the custom wheels separately. But then I realized that I might only have them for a few months, and that seemed like too much effort and wasted money for a short term purchase. If I planned to keep the car for at least a year or more I'd probably go that route, but I've made up my mind to just go with a cheaper ($2,500-$3,000) setup and just sell them with the car and put the leftover money from the claim towards the Telsa.
#10 - A forum member had them for sale on the private FS section!!!! get them while u still can
Yeah I saw those. But they have 15k miles on them and have several curb rashes, and he was only asking about 15% less than new. Fixing the curb damage would cost several hundred dollars and basically put the set at the same as what they were new.
I vote for not going too dark. You lose some of the accent color down by the wheels and the area looks empty without somewhat of a color there. I'd stick with a graphite for the color.

Thanks for the kind words bro!!! Glad you like the car man I agree he should go with Vossens!

I would get a set of Vossens. They are really nice, the attention to detail on the VFS1 and VFS2's are amazing, and they have fitments that are perfect for the ISF! PM The vendor on here GetURWheel (Jason is the guys name) for the best price on them. Either VFS1 or VFS2's look awesome, as do the new gloss graphite CVT's
