Wheel purchase question

Hello,

Getting ready to by some new wheels to replace my stock OEM wheels.

Now, for me at least, a wheel is an emotional purchase. Mostly based on looks.

Once I rule out inch of wheel, offset, etc. what are things to look out for when choosing the new wheel being negative and positive (quality, name brand, other factors?)?

Thank you,

Brian

More spokes makes it harder to clean the brake dust off.
Will the new wheels accept the OEM TPMS?

Thats about all I can think of.

Wheel strength relative to weight, should be factored if you want to get into any motorsports.
