Opinions on which wheel choice.
I am looking to get wheels without spending a fortune. My friend is set up with TSW and can get me a set at a good price. I am torn between these two and wanted to get some input from other G owners.

Mondello, Chrome. G/F likes the chrome, but I'm not sure I like the look of chrome.

i'm with grant on this one. if you are limited to those wheels only, the Mondello's would be my choice.
in addition to 5zigen and sevas, have you considered axis? all three are nice budget wheels.

The main reason I am kinda thinking the TSW's is the price. He can get me the set for right under $800. I thought I was going to luck out on a set of Axis Hiro's but the guy had them listed as the wrong size, wrong tire size, wrong tires, oh and the wrong offset.
Axis said they are for an S2000. So there will be a nice new set of Axis Hiro's w/Tires, in the anthrosite color going on ebay Sunday evening.
I just bought a set of Mondello hyper blacks, should come in next week.
Btw, here are the Mondello's on an IP coupe (20 inch) on some other guys G: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2328307 (scroll down).

I dont like any of them, sorry. Im not voting 'cause I'd rather not see you get any of those. Get a set of Sevas is my vote.

All three of those are pretty bad to be honest.
You should look at getting some factory 19's with spacers or maybe even some M45 sport wheels. Both are in that price range and much nicer looking and have better quality.
TSW = Too Soft Wheels
