Default Rims for 2006 6

Hey guys, I'm looking to put some rims on my 6 this Spring. I see there are quite a few sites out there: tirerack.com, rims.com, customwheel.com - any recommendations for one over the other??? Type of tires, etc? I really have no clue about all this stuff. Thanks for any help or suggestions!!

Tirerack tends to have the best prices.

You might want to check on Ebay also, that is where I got my last 3 sets of wheels from.

on the 6 you need to be very careful about the offset of the wheels as we have a kinda funky offset. Any lower than +48 and you will rub. I'd take a look at Enkeis as they have several with offsets that work well with our cars.
