#3 for sure! I need to come check out your car sometime soon. You've done a lot to it since I last saw it, and I've always wanted to see a kitted Alero in person.

They are all cheap rims, but #2 is the best by far.

I was gonna buy #3 myself but the company I was to get them from locally ( cheaper then online prices ) could get them but without a date saying when I would have them ( minimum of 4 months id have to wait ) so I said don't bother since I didn't want to wait that long for rims to come in

I'm looking at the American racing ones and the 2 TSW ones I'm really liking. I'v also done some research and heard good things about their company so far. I like the style of #3 but it have the center cap, I dont like that, I want to be able to the lug nuts, and those things just feel cheap... the #5 TSW ones would be perfect if I could toss in a bit of black accents on them and the red stripe around them.

for #5, you could powdercoat the inside portion of the rims black, and have the outer edges in between the spokes done it red... would obvioulsy cost extra, and I have no clue how it would turn out, but its an idea...

You'd have to let em know the offset of the wheel you're thinking about. I have 18x8's all around with no problems, but I don't remember my offset to really help you out.
From my posts back in the day discussing them, mine are 18x8 with a 40mm offset. Rolling on 235 40 18's.

I like 1 and 3. I almost bought the American Racing wheels myself. I'm just not sure how great the Anthricite will look on the car. Also, I think it will be textured and hold brake dust like crazy. I just bought some ION wheels for mine. I had them installed yesterday. I think they look pretty nice, although if I could have afforded to upgrade the wheels and tires at the same time they would have looked better as 18's
