Considering the 01 and 02 sedans have the same front end, do you mean the coupe front end swap?

As for rims, it's a personal preference kind of thing so do what you want, I just wouldn't go over 18's. Even those can look big.

White rims can look good, what color is your car?

Just don't go with flat black, unless you enjoy re painting them over and over. Bought a set of Motegi flat black and looked great until a few months down the road after they faded. When this happens you can always respray them with flat black primer and finish it off with wheel clear coat.
