Good set of wheels & tire question, need recommendations plz.

ok so i want to get either black or gunmetal rims, i have the inka pearl coupe, and either 16" or 17". anyone have any recommendations for good rims while keep the price moderate? also, would they be heavier or lighter then the current ones? id like lighter ones if possible. thanks

edit:
oh also, ill be needing some new tires soon, not sure if ill have the wheels by then or not. does anyone have any recomendation for all season tires? lets say under $500 for a set? dont need some super grip to the road and taking 100mph turns or anything, but normal tires that will perform well.

I bought 4 Falken Ziex 512 205/45/17 for $400.00 shipped.
A couple places should carry them for that price, or cheaper for 205/50/16.
