Depends on your tastes.. What kind do you picture on your car. From there, we can throw out examples.
Re: What rims should i get?

I have the car in black...and was thinking of a 5 spoke rim with red trim...and should i consider 16" or 17"?

Konig, Rota, XXR, Axis wheels would all be in your budget. You should also look into buying your wheels used, go that route you can get a wheel that would normally be over $2000 for close to your price point. There are lots of JDM importers that offer used wheels.
The new wheels I would choose, which are relatively close to your budget, are motegi tracklites.

i hate wheels with red trims on the lip please don't get that. here is the best place to buy XXR there 2012 lineup looks nice and get 16s there the perfect size for 7th gens 17 are to big and 15s are to small.

Re: What rims should i get?
still have a soft spot for Enkei RPF1s. they look good on anything. There are two cats in town that have em, one is a dumped white fit sport the other is a gunmetal grey magnum and yes, they even look good on that.
They would look **** on an Aids ridden log of ****.

I love RPF1s too, they're strong as hell for a cast wheel.
I'm a big enkei fan in general, actually, I'd consider them one of the best midrange wheel manufacturers.

Re: What rims should i get?
To me, Rfp1 reps just don't look good for some reason, they look cheap to my eye and not as close to the originals as most replica wheels. Sw338 replicas I have a very difficult time telling apart from authentic spoon.
