I can not find any wheels I like for my car. I'm getting pissed off.
Every time i find a wheel I finally like I find out it doesn't fit our cars.
I'm looking for a wheel like the SSR GT2. A nice looking 5 star wheel that has a little lip in a 17" wheel that is LIGHT. Most of all I want it to be a 5 star that's light. Is that too much to ask?
end rant.

I feel your pain, brother. I went through this early last spring, except I didn't care about the style so much. I ended up getting SSR Type C RS, 6 spoke in black (which may not be available now). Like you, I wanted really light wheels.
The only thing I found that might work after a very quick search is this:
OZ Crono HT, bright silver finish, 5 spokes, 17X8 40mm offset, 18.5 lbs., $263 each (This will fit the front fine, but the rear might be a problem if you want to mount wide tires).

This is the same reason I wanted to remove all of my wheel hubs and re-drill holes to accommodate the 5x114.3 bolt pattern. The 5x114.3 rims are all over the friggin' place, and there's a huge variety to choose from. I know that they're mostly for imported cars, but I don't care. Nice rims are nice rims!
You may be able to find a set of Camaro, Firebird, Trans Am or Vette's wheels with a 5 star pattern, but watch for their offset's!
