Suggestions on wheels- paying $.04 for your $.02 worth
I am looking for suggestions on wheels for a 2006 Carbon Gray Pearl AT Navi. Catch? Well, this would be no fun without one! I'm in real estate and must have a very conservative look- but hey, I LOVE the lowered, modded, PIMPED look... just not business acceptable. Also, bear in mind that this is a daily driver and a serious impression on my clients. That being said, what'd you guys think?!

I think the first suggested rim is a nice idea. However it depends on if you plan on lowering the car at all.

rims without a drop is just 
a modest drop is your best bet, if you ever take your clients in ur car to a house or what not, and since you are probably well off, get some TEIN COMFORT coilovers...comfortable ride, adjust to a nice stance when meeting customers...slam it when you feel like it...
but the advan wheels are awesome for the look of your car...it will look great with a drop!
it's not a "if"...it's a "must"

I understand your theory- I used to have a Jeep and not suggesting a lift was the most ridiculous thing I could imagine, but if it weren't a daily driver/workmobile I would not hesitate.
Thanks everyone for your inpute- I'll post some pics of the work in progress shortly.

Jonesey-
I have an 04 TSX with the A-Spec suspension. It's very livable for daily driving, it's about an inch drop, handles great, and the wheels I posted above look great on my car with 235/40/18 rubber on them. It's definitely a route you could go (although be prepared to wait 3-4 months on those wheels if you want them).
Honestly a nice multi-spoke silver rim will work nicely for your cause. If you don't want to go with Advans, maybe look for a nice BBS-style silver multi-spoke (again reccomending silver over chrome, chrome is going to be too much bling) in conjunction with a mild (A-Spec or otherwise) drop.
