what rims to get for a 89 Camry?

what's up fellow camry owners!

I'm in the market for some rims. I somewhat have an idea on rims to get, but I'd like to have more options.

I'm currently looking at either Enkei or Konig rims because of price. I'd like some light rims...ie the Konig Helium @ 11lbs each in 15". I'd like to either get some 15" with 60 series tires or some 16" with some 50 series tires. I like the beefy lookin' sidewall tire look. Also I'm keepin' in my mind comfort ride and gas economy. I currently get about 31mpg and would like to keep it that way, hence the option of 15" rims.

Does anyone have any other suggestions on brands of rims besides from the afore mentioned. Also...I'd like to stay within a price range of $800 and under due to financial budget.

thanx everyone!
