Check out the Aftermarket Wheel Owners thread...HERE. That should give you some ideas.

If you're going with chrome, you'll need 20s for sure. Asanti? I dont really know any chrome wheel makers.
What is your budget anyways?

There are black wheels that look good on the 2IS. Check out the last couple pages of the "Aftermarket Wheels" thread for an example.

Those look good, too, though. A unique style, and I like the concavity. I think I've seen a couple people say they look too similar to stock 18s, but I think they're very distinguishable.
