Rotas will always be a good choice for the money. This all depends on your budget.

go w/ your style but I have had two sets of rims (which is not a lot for many people)
-Motegi's MR7's 17"s (24lbs) = Very heavy but never had any problems.
-Rota Slips 16"s (12lbs) = Very light and cooler than my motegi's, currently no problems.
I would reccomend going w/ 16's unless you have a 7th gen then go w/ 17's+. Small wheels look funky on a 7th gen. Also, try not to get what everybody has, i know/seen 8 other people who had mr7's, same w/ slips.

If you have a small budget, keep in mind the price of tires go up w/ the size of rim.

Yeah, i've just seen a 5th gen coupe with 17s and it looked really good ! I'll have to look into the Rotas, havent seen many at all with those rims around here. A little pricey but i guess they are worth it.

yeah 17's, in my opinion, look good on coupes...it just seems to fit it better...but personally i'd get 16's just because tires would be a lil cheaper...=)
