Randy, great minds must think alike. My dream wheel is the R.S. Watanabe Type R.

If I were to build a crazy Nopro type race car then I'd have Type Rs rolling on Goodyear racing slicks.
Or maybe magnesium centerlock BBS.

I also think that the Type A and Type B in a 14x6.5 and anywhere from ET14.5 to ET3 looks real nice on a street car with stock fenders.

Unfortunately, there isn't much choice in 14" tires so I'll also need a set of F8 15x7 ET28 for good measure.

Or why not mix and match F8 and Type R and get them totally blinged out with SMC (Special Magic Coating)

Anyone else beginning to see a trend here?

Those Star-shark, Sakuras, etc are beautiful for old school imports, but I doubt if they were ever made in 4X100 though...
Myself, I've always been in love with the SSR Mesh (formula/ reverse/ full reverse):

All VERY nice wheels! In some cases for me, the more "fugly" or unique the wheel, the more I like it - I have a "weird wheel" fetish. 
I really which I could have gotten my RPF1's in gold - the silver is OK, but I don't like the lack of contrast between the white car and silver wheels. I can't bring myself to paint them either, since they're so well finished from the factor (anyone know if you can get Enkei stickers if I do decide to paint 'em?)
Some of my faves:

it looks like a spacer that fits over the existing studs but also has studs put into the spacer that allows a 114 spec wheel to fit so you can run those old school hachi roku style rims BUT since it is technically a spacer the wheels will sit more to the outside meaning that it would be hard to run the deep dish style look without adding flares etc...i saw a japan set on ebay a few weeks ago but can't find the link anymore
I assume that the Sakura wheels are impossible to get? I would so rock a set of those.
