Help me decide on new rims

I need help on deciding which wheels to get. I thought I need a new look on my car and I decided to sale my TE37 and buy different wheels.here is the link for my te37 for sale

I don't want any bling bling and/or spinners.
rims with nice lips for front and rear.
Rims that will clear my new Endless brakes without any spacers(it barely clears my TE37 right now)

any ideas?

There are a myriad of wheel choices. Based on the mods you have now I can tell you like quality stuff. Go for HRE's, Kinesis, or Fikse.

Here are some pics of the contenders.

FIKSE PROFIL 5



FIKSE PROFIL 5S



FIKSE FM 10



FIKSE FM 5



BBS LM



KINESIS K19R



KINESIS K58R



KINESIS K58

Oooh, I like the kinesis k19r's.
Oh, I believe that HRE is coming out with a competition series where the wheels are considerably lighter than the normal HRE's. Might be something to look at if you're going for performance...and since you have a custom TT kit...I'm sure they'll interest you.

can't believe you said that Tom.

Fikse and HRE are two top dogs.they're granddads of wheels IMO.
