What rims should i buy? any suggestions

ANY suggestions on what to get? Well i'm still lookin, i was lookin to spend maybe $1500 max for the whole set, maybe a lil more if i really like them. Any suggestions would be great, and i mean anything, maybe TT2's cuz i know those are a good wheel. I can't decide and don't know what there really is as far as wheels for our cars. Oh yeah, my car is an 02 Z if it really matters, but i would like something a lil fatter for the rears.

Something like the grandsports would be nice but i want something a lil different cuz those are too common, was thinkin of gettin those black Z06 rivet wheels (18x10.5 rears and 17x9.5 fronts) but was iffy on them cuz i want a powdercoat and not painted and lately i've been hearing they're not all that great. And i emailed FLP bout a week ago about those cuz i remember when i picked up my headers about half a year ago, there was a rack of Z06 rims out front all different colors, yellow, black, and i wanna say blue and red but i'm gonna try callin them about that though. For a wheel to be powdercoated, does it have to be a 2-piece for them to be able to do that or even a 3 piece wheel?

I just upgraded my wheels to the Z06 18x10.5 in the rear and 18x9.5 in the front in chrome and they look awesome, I couldn't be happier with them. The rear tires are extremely wide and look great. Go with the Zo6 wheel for sure.
