I finally picked out a new pair of shoes for my car. There certainly are alot of similar looking wheels made by a variety of manufactures out there so the decision wasn't easy. I ended up with the Avant Garde 310 series. I bought these from the guys over at Modbargins.com who were very helpful and friendly. I actually drove down any picked them up so I had a chance to check out their operation as well. Ron suggested I go with the staggerd rims rather then non staggerd. I'm still not sure I made a good choice yet but they sure look great. I paired them up with the Dunlop Direzza 245/35/19 in front and 275/30/19 on the rear.
