Default Tired of my c8's, new rim suggestions for SSB DC?

i've had my rims for about a month or a bit longer but i'm getting kind of tired of them. Thinking about getting a cheap set of ls mesh's and painting those. Any other suggestions are definitely welcome. The max i would spend is probably 7 or 800 with tires.

I was thinking of gold w/ polished lip for the ls mesh's. Haven't seen it before. If i got the ls mesh route i'll have 300 to use for something else

here's a pic with the rotas:

i have gsr swirlies in my backyard

I don't want to deal with shipping so if you can come to the bay area that'd be cool. I'm thinking maybe ls wheels + 350?

SSBP is a touchy color when it comes to rim color,and colored cosmetics. I think it looks good as is, but maybe something black would look good.

Whatever you do dont get white, there is a SSBP gsr down the street at the donut store and it looks like *** w/white wheels
