What kind of Tiers & Rims do you have ?

I have a friend who is looking to get rim's & tiers. He is looking to get 17's. He isn't sure what brand of tiers or rims to get. I'd like to hear from every one on what they are running with. Rims & tiers, and how do you like or dislike them. If you have stock rims & aftermarket tiers, let me know. I'm looking more for a review of tiers, but would like to hear about rims also.

I have TSW VX1'S. 17x7 with Nitto Extreme Performance 450's. 45's I paid about a hundred each.
I love them & would totally recommend them. The tiers handle exhalent. They fell sticky and can take the twisty very nicely.

I have stock steelies with nice plastic covers on my ride. No tiers. I think it's got Michelin tires, though.

I'm planning on getting Racing Hart C3 rims with some of the new Yokohama Parada wraps. My bro had the previous variant of the Parada on his Accord after he ditched some Toyos and they handled very nicely, much better than the Toyos he had.

-edit- changed C2 to C3

I've got 15x6.5 Borbet 'B' with 195/55 Dunlop W10s. The tires are nice 'n' sticky, but look like they'll only last 20 or 30k (but they were only $55 apiece, so not too bad). I think they replaced the W10s with something else this year, though.

Hmm... I don't think I've ever posted a picture. Since Borbets aren't that popular, here's a pic:
