Is it bad that I like the stock wheels better than those two options?

Nope, everyone has different tastes

..........We also wouldn't consider spending $4000+ on a set a wheels a manufacturer keeps avoiding to make

It's up to $5,000+ now.

Mainly personal taste, yes. The Enkei option is by all accounts a great wheel, but I have never warmed up to the look. The SSR wheel is more my style, and also a good wheel, but black turns me off completely and the spoke detail where it dimples in by the rim ruins an otherwise hansom look.

They do offer the SSR in silver as well, ha ha. I personally like both silver and black.

I'm biased (pic taken at Alex's (PantyChrist) mini meet last summer):


Just rolled over 90,000 kilometres.

Well I appreciate all of the input from everyone! I have decided to go with (and already ordered) the SSRs. They will get more street oriented tires (haven't decided yet which tires) and when I can afford it, I'll be ordering another set of wheels (Maybe the Enkei's if my budget is similar at the time) for racing slicks. When I get the wheels and new tires mounted up, I'll get some pictures posted up!

I like the RPF1 Type II as it is not a 5 spoke design. The SSRs are quality and I would kill to have them myself!

I ended up getting the SSRs for cheaper actually, lol. Doing a review on them. This may or may not have helped me decide, ha ha
