you dont just put any wheel&tire combo and say it'll look good on all other FD's too.... as stated before their is no "best" but i think every car is different. the wheel needs to match the car ie body kit, suspension, color and purpose of use IMHO! I'm a big fan of Fikse, most Volk's, SSR comp's, Advan RG II, Advan RS forged and many more. but like i said the wheel has to go with the car!!

seeing your wheels at DGRR sealed the deal on having my SSRs powdercoated gloss black.

I have turned into a bit of a Fikse fan myself, and I must at least partially blame GoodfellaFD3S - in a good way! Not a fan of mesh wheels on these cars, do like the 5 spoke look (like FM5 or Profil 5), and surprisingly multi spoke wheels like the Profil 13! (but not the 'dual spoke' look) The natural aluminum color works well for me too, whether matte or polished or anodized.

The problem I have is I like a lot of wheels. I think most wheels look good on an FD. My being always goes to the best performing wheels which tend to be single piece, rigid, lightweight and wide wheels.
For 100% looks only, I like the SBC SSR sp01 wheels in a staggard application. I like the step lip.
For performance, I went with NT03 18x11.5" wide which has the best fitment and width for what I want on stock fenders and I don't mind the looks of them. Rigid, lightweight, look good, good fitment.
For performance and looks with no offset limiting factors, I like the Wedsport TC105N wheels in 18x10.5 +12. Those wheels look awesome.
And for huge bling regardless of fitment or lug pattern or whatever it may be.
