You don't want Mags. Those are magneseum wheels, which are super expensive, not that much lighter than aluminum, and are much more prone to corrosion and damage (they're quite brittle). What you want are aluminum wheels.

Ok, so now that we've established that, what size do you want? How much power do you have? Do you have widebody fenders? Do you have coilovers? How low is the car? What is the main objective? What styles do you like? What do you do with the car (street, race, drag, drift)?

You need to give us more information. You also need to do your own research. Look around at other FC wheel fittment threads and that'll give you an idea of what fits and what doesn't, from there you can start to decide what kind of sizes you want to run. Then it's possible for us to help you, but now it'd be a crap-shoot, as we have no idea what you want other than that they're wheels.

Thanks for the compliment. Unfortunately I'm spoken for job-wise, I've got a sweet engineering co-op job starting in January.

I tend to assume everyone's a cheap *** like me, so I'd tend to just reccomend budget setups anyway, unless they say that they want Volks or something specific and expensive, but yes, I missed that one.
