For one, I'd never spend that much on rims unless it was a show car, and two, I like the first rim better

.... most legitimate show cars have wheels 2 to 3 times the cost of those ones. I wouldn't even look at a set of wheel that was under $1,200 for the set. I know price is a big deal to most kids these days. I remember buying my first set of Rays when I was 17 for $600 and thinking I was going to be on ramen for the foreseeable future (BTW, $600 for Rays is a steal), but there are better options out there that are in your price range - if $1200 is your maximum.


edit: Good staggered wheel sets are pretty hard to come by in 5x100, if you absolutely want a true staggered set (vs getting non-staggered and using spacers on the rear) I would suggest looking into swapping to a 5x114.3 hub. 5x114.3 has WAY more options for you.

If you're going for a "show car" look, I'd def look into getting some JDM wheels without a doubt.

could go with a one off wheel.
Contacting companies like Mackin Industries and asking if they would custom drill wheels that usually come in 5x114.3 to 5x100 and then a custom color
would be the all out best option for a show car.
it will break your bank but you can say you have a one off custom wheel directly manufactured from them

i wouldn't go for any of those wheels. I would take the 1200 and look for a good branded set used.
