I have been looking and looking but I can't find the right rim that i like.

I want to get some 17's for my silver Celica. I'm looking for something in black or gunmetal (i think would look best). A lot of rims are too fansy. I want a simple 5 or 6 widespoke rim.

Can anyone link me to some websites that carry a large selection of rims i could look at?

I saw the Driftz 517GM, but i don't like 10 holes in the center of it.

oh yah, that's a step in the right direction. Polished lip looks real good.

Any others out there?

edit: oh, what's the bolt pattern on celicas?

Enkei or Ro_ja they have nice 5 spoke designs and none of that fake rivet crap.

set your spending limit then find the rims..

the 10 holes in the center i believe you are talking about is the holes for the studs, usucally there are 10 so they can fit both 5x100 and 5x114.3 lug pattern. Obvious they do this to make the rims more universal and therefore cheaper. I hhave noticed that most rims with specific lug patterns ( only 5 holes) are more expensive. Also some rims have pseudo holes liek the roja formula 5/7, that look like that have 10 holes but its really only 5 and 5 indentations.

I've been looking at the Enkei Evo5. and it's pretty close to what i want.

As for the price, I'm generally aiming for no more then $300 per rim.
