Looks good was the car white originally? Like in your profile?
Te37 looks good too and light
 
It's really all about your own personal prefrences. I like simple five spoke rims, nothing flashy. Everyones ideas of a "good" look will be different. Do what fits the budget and your personality. But god please no spinners LOL.
 
17" SSR GT1 Wheels (Lightweight) - Sale! - DSM Classifieds

Basically a split spoke version of the Integral, looks great on a black 1G IMO. I had a set of 16" Integrals on my car when I first got it, still kicking myself for selling them.

I think simple 5 spoke wheels would look good. My favorite wheels that I picked up on a budget (profile pic) would be the 2G gst 5 spokes. I got them in a junkyard and traded in some old ugly wheels that had screw on center caps LOL.

Oh man, I wish my center caps were screw on. These "cheap" fitting RAYS caps are like 20 bucks apiece and I lose one every few months or so. I like simple five stars as well and on a black car I'd want painted silver wheels.
 
I am a huge fan of the evo 8 or 9 but more the 8 for 1g:

Anything concave, spokes sticking out past lip is ugly IMO.

These wheels look good (maybe rpf1's, my monitor sucks)

About all Im finding googling at the moment. But these cars look good with 5 spokes, like almost cant look bad with a 5 spoke of any kind (chrome anything excluded).

I have always been a fan of ROTA slipstreams with a big sidewall. Gives it a beefy "i will eat your children" look IMO.

If I wasn't doing rotas, I would vote +1 on EVO 8s.

Again, IMO, 1gs need a simplistic, >17" wheel. It doesn't have the "modern" look to pull off big volks, BBS or deep dish.
 
so many options i just don't know, i like the evo 9 5 spoke wheels and i like rpf'1s. i definitely want something that is aftermarket so i can have different options with wheel sizes
 
Should definitely go with the rpf1s. Those are my next choice. I currently have 2g Oz edition wheels on my black 1g and love em.

18s are too big, 16s are too small. 17s are the perfect size IMHO.
 
ya i think 17" RPF 1's would look amazing i just gotta figure out the offset i don't want them sticking out like crazy
