There are a lot of choices. You might want to check out www.tirerack.com.
I believe the offset of the stock 17x7 wheels is +55.
A popular choice of those with $$$$ are SSR Comptetitions in 17x8 (+48 offset) with 235-45 17 Toyo Proxes. They are considerably lighter than the stock wheels/tire combo. They're supposed to be excellent street tires and I imagine they would be decent for the track as well (better than stock, for sure).
Here are pix of some of the wheels I am considering for future purchase. They're all pretty conservative in styling.
5zigen 5ZR-S
Altstadt I
Borbet T
SSR Agle Strusse
SSR Competition
SSR GT1
SSR Integral
I'm sure other peeps can post with more technical info and suggestions. Good luck deciding!!!

Check out the pics of my BBS RK wheels at my site....They are 18" wheels with 225/45/zr18's I think they look sweet...Lots of people like them.
Just my 2cents worth.
