Help me spend some $ on wheels!

Option 1: Rota DPT 18x9.5+20 in Cosmic Blue
Option 2: Enkei RPF1 18x9.5+15 in matte black
Option 3: Gram Lights 57G 18x9.5+22 in gunblue

These are going to be track wheels, and oddly enough #1 and #2 are lighter than #3, which have the JDM bling factor.

Chris, did you have the tell-tale signs of leaking transmission fluid on the bottom driver's side of the plastic valve body cover?

Option 2: Enkei RPF1 18x9.5+15 in matte black, but take the girly panties off and step up to a 10.5. Read the vorshlag blog, you can run a smaller tire, get a touch of stretch and keep the sidewalls stiff. Also, when are you getting coilovers....such a huge difference.

No leaking anywhere.

My vote goes to #2 as well. Since you'll be at the dyno day, you can check out the black (I think) RPF1's that Bimmertech03 has on his Blue X.

Ah, thanks Danny. I knew he had RPF1's, but I wasn't sure on the color and I haven't seen your car in a LONG time (other than Sonny B's the other day) so I had forgotten you had RPF1's as well.
