Thats what im leaning more towards because of the fact you can get them in a bigger size than the other wheels, so mounting a 315 tire wouldnt be at all a problem... What size did u get them in? any pics?

That's a tough one. HP R5 (black) would be my vote. Don't think I've seen them around town. Just make sure you get fat tires out back.

i LOVE your SS rims in black!.... but the HP Evo's would look killer on your car if you're going for more "show"..... those rims on the NBM car look like some HRE's to me...just my $0.02, i could be wrong!??

My suggestion is that you go ahead with the other cosmetic plans that you have planned and then decide what wheels to go with because the look of the car will be different.
