After Market Wheels, Where can I check on some? Options

[gas65]

I have'nt decided yet, but I'm thinking about purchasing some after market wheels.Probably won't go for anything bigger than the stock size of 15x7, but I might if I find something that looks good on it.

I'm tired of the factory original wheels coming up warped everytime I get the tires rotated.My 94 had one wheel warped prior to my wreck, and afterwards one more came up warped, and it was'nt even the front wheel, go figure.

Just bought a 95 to replace it and it has one wheel warped and the rest are pitted a little from the previous owner not cleaning the car regularly.Even bought a new wheel off ebay awhile back, and the paint job on it does'nt match the wheels on either car.It actually looks better, but who can afford to buy 3 more like it from toyota?Let alone take a chance on them getting warped again so easily.

So out of 9 factory wheels, I have 5 that look great(2 of which are now warped, and 1 that does'nt match any of the others) and 4 that look like they need a new paint job(1 of which is warped).I thought about putting the best looking wheels on the drivers side, the 2 that look bad on the passenger side, and use the one that does'nt match real well as a spare.But I hate to have 2 rough looking wheels on my car.

I have'nt bought after market wheels since I was a teenager many, many years ago, so I'm asking for some of you to post thoughts on what brands I should check into.I want something for all seasons(even though we don't get alot of snow), something easily cleaned(don't want something that I have to use a toothbrush to clean areas not easily accessable), something sturdy or warranted(tired of warped wheels).I keep my car cleaned regularly, but would prefer something thats does'nt rust or flake off.

So if some of you can give your honest opinions on after market wheels, or if you have links to sites of the wheel distributors, or even pics of your own wheels and and whether you recommend them or not, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks
Greg
