Default Good Wheels for a good price? Noticable with lighter rims?

Hey, right now I'm in the market for some 15" rims. I'm kind of budgeted, so I turned to H-T for knowledge. What are some relatively good wheel/tire deals, for a fairly good price? Also, where are some good places to start looking?

On a side note, how much of a difference will there be when you get lighter rims? Right now I have on some 14" older audi rims that are pigs, and everything feels kind of sluggish..

The wheels would be going on a '92 sedan.

Id say go with OEM SI rims...may not be the lightest, but they are nice!

EDIT: If you want light go with OEM HX rims!! You can find those pretty cheap!

beamsville?
Allwell, I'm kinda stuck on the attack's or subzeros, I always thought rotas were a bit more pricy for some reason. meh, I'll choose a set soon enough, I still have a few more blocks to carry before I get them anyways lol
