Best looking, cheapest, weight rims for the buck?

What do you guys suggest?

I want really good looking rims , that are inexpensive, and relatively light.

here is my car now


as you can see it is pretty basic,

I just got the car and i wanna "spice" it up, make it look wicked,

I like those white 6 star rims? I don;t have a pic, anyone know what im talking about?


thank you for any feed back.

Those white 6 spoke rims you are talking about I think are the Volk TE37's, and believe me brother, they aint cheap I have a set of Konig Rated R's in 16X7 and they were pretty cheap from Discount tire. They can be bought in white too, but mine are in silver. They only weighed 14.5-14.7 lbs when I had the tires mounted, so they are pretty light for cheap rims. They are on my Project 86 race car in the picture below:
