What brand name wheels?

Hey guys, I am about to buy a 240SX and i want to know some popular places or brands that i can look into for some wheels.

I am planning on painting my ride white so i want to buy gun metal or black rims with maybe a chrome or polished lip or something.

My bad about not being specific, but yea i think i wanna get some 18 inch ones and i dont really care about how heavy they are.

I barely started looking for some and i really like the Racing Hart CR Multipiece Graphite Wheels (http://www.racinghart.com/wheels/114.jpg)

Those are some pretty nice rims..nnot a big lip though. For pretty cheap and kinda heavy rims check out RS racing rims..ADR..Excel..Tenzo R..velox. For expensive but very NICE and light/meduim weight wheels check out Volk rims (also rays), Nismo,Kosei, RH, Sparco, AXIS (have sum great 18" rims!!!). Those are pretty much the ones i know of..probably forgot a few.

rims dont need big lips...its just for style really. But they do help to keep the tire on the rim better, espically when driving hard (IE drifting)
