Default Poll for new summer wheels... 17" DTM's will not be available for next summer...so

I need recommendations on good wheels. I'm planning on spending a max of $200-$300 per wheel + shipping + tires that'll fit. I don't see a purpose in buying new tires for the stock 15s.

Thanks in advance.

Default I might get flamed for this: but I think I'm going to pick up some 17" Enki's

Yes, rice boy wheels. BUT, at 17.5lbs for $140 a piece they're hard to turn down. You might want to check out Edge Racing for some other wheels. I'm also a fan of the Flik Artic's, but they're a bit heavy for my taste.<ul><li><a href="http://edgeracing.com">Edgeracing.com</a></li></ul>

Default Flik FTD seemed nice to me for some reason... with Falken Ziex Ze 512

They're just under $700 + shipping... compared to what I paid for a set of 15" tires last they're a bargain. ($112 per tire is what I paid last time for all weather tires)
