Please help me!

Please guys and girls! I need your help. I've been searching since Friday for a set of gunmetal rims. I'll even powdercoat a nice set of silver ones if I find the style I like. I don't know of too many good and well known rim companies. Only one I've really looked into is Konig and I don't even know how good they are. Please, please help me, I've searched since Friday and I have no clue what to look for anymore. I want a pretty good brand, no knock off rims. I have 1500 saved and maybe a little more. I was looking for 18", 5, 6 spoke. pretty simple design in gunmetal if they come, if not I will powdercoat them. The least u guys could do is send me in the right direction, I don't even know what are good brand rims are cheap knock offs.

Thx guys in advance.

Vtec99 if you hear this, those are the style rims that float my boat. Sorry I'm a noob when it comes to this site and I admit it, but if any of you have time to check out Vtec99 and his ride, I like both rims he has, very nice. Thx again and all your help is appreciated.

Good Brands:
BBS
OZ
Rays Engineering (Volk Racing, Gram Lights, G-Games)
Wed's
Work
Advan
Regamaster (Spoon)
Racinghart (Not RH Evo)
HRE

But you won't get 18's with tires from them for $1500... add about another $1000.

If you shoot for the mid range:
Enkei
RH Evo
Konig (although they make some copies)
5Zigen
Black Racing (good copies)
Rota (Knockoffs, but they're pretty strong, and inexpensive)
You can probably keep your $1500 budget.
