18" Chrome wheels suggestion

Hey All, I'm looking for ideas for a set of 18" chrome wheels. Long story (previous post), one of my wheels is hamburger meat, and I'm looking at getting a new set of the winter. I am putting on the set of Blizzaks today.. so I'm not in any huge hurry.

Anyhow, I've looked at the usual places; Tirerack, WheelsNext, Tires.com, ebay and there's a couple I like, but nothing that really grabs me. I like the Ronjon wheels but they seem a little pricey.

I like the idea of all chrome or chrome lip, and not too much jazziness with the wheel design. I'm more of a "cragar" type person--ie: I like spokes/simplicity. Not too crazy about rivets either. Big concern is durability/weight, and of course offset. No drop yet but if I go the 18" route I'll prob get coilovers or H&R sport at a min.

On ebay, one of the sets I like is:
http://vsrwheels.com/Wheels/vsrwheel...e/DSC04082.JPG
Name: VSR AS-RT
Bolt Pattern: 5x100 or 5x114.3
Size: 18"x7.5"
Off Set: +45mm
Finish: Triple Plated Chrome
Condition: Brand New In Factory Boxes
But I'm very hesitant to get an unknown brand of wheel off of ebay.

I also like the Racing Harts w/the chrome lip.. Just looking for more ideas.

Thanks all..

I was going to actually say if you want to go for a simplistic design, to checkout RonJon's forged devotions. You wouldn' thave to worry about offsets and sizing either.

Sorry, I'm an idiot and didn't see why not RJ wheels. I say pick up a set of Axis (Hiros) I believe. Fat lip, no rivets, very simplistic 5 spoke design.
