Default 18" wheel suggestion for my S2000

Ok....so I think I want some more 'blingy' type of wheels for my car. I've only kept up on performance wheels and such.

Seeing that I have 4 sets of MF10s for the S2000 (for some reason I cannot understand), I figure I'd sell one set and replace it with something more stylish.

Here are a couple of pics of my car as she stands:





And here's a pic of how I'd like my car to look for (as far as wheels go):



Does anyone have any other suggestions (pics)? BTW, save your suggestions about BBS LMs. They are too heavy for what I want and too common.

I read, heard, and seen one local owner with JLines. Any other recommendations?

Also, if you are interested in buying a set of MF10's, here's a link to my FS thread with pics:

the work meisters are bling, but are still nice,

le37s black w/pol lip are nice also,

i've seen someone selling some blitz-01's re-painted black w/polished lip.

Papa,

Yup...I come across sets and buy them. Pack-rat mentality. I should start getting rid of these sets soon (as such, one set is for sale now: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread/1617864)

As for the suggestions, those JLines look great! Any word on weight for those wheels in an 18"?

As for HRE's, I'm a firm believer that HRE's are made for Bimmers and exotics. They are too heavy for my S2000.

As for the Work VS-xx's, I've seen them on an S2000 up in Wisconsin...unfortunately, the offset of the wheel doesn't make for a very "blingy" lip. If I were to go with a wheel with no lip...it'd have to be something like the Advan RGS or a custom set of Enkei RPFs (something VERY racerish looking and lightweight).

Oh yeah...another criteria is that they cannot be a "common" wheel (ie. LE's, CE's, TE's, RGII, etc.).

I'm not oppose to Fikse, Kinesis, and other custom made race-USDM wheels.

if you want a nice uncommon wheel and some bling I highly suggest Jline wheels. I just got a set of the 6rl2's on my s2k. I absolutely love them. Mine are high polished and just look amazing. As for the weight, they are fully forged wheel and they weighed about the same as my stock 16s, my guess is they are about 17lbs or so for the 18s.

i would buy a set of your mugens.. but ehhh.. no money LOL.. need boost.. hahahaha....

as for the weight of the jlines... i'm not sure, but i would say no more then 23lbs.... they are forged... but they are 3 piece wheels, so that'll add some weight....
