look at either cor forged or axiom. both are lightwieght, strong and have various designs to suit everyone's taste. i went with the axiom ax-601, 20x9 and 20x11 chrome lips, black powder coat inner hoop, machined face with color matched windows. great quality, fit, finish, customer service and they are lighter than the stock wheels.

Since performance is a criteria, I'd recommend something in a 1-piece forged variety. The sets I've had seem to weigh less than a multi-piece constructed wheel. The HRE Monoblok wheels I have on my Viper are super light. But, since you said cost is not an issue, I'll introduce you to these carbon fiber lip HRE wheels. The lip is solid carbon fiber, not a typical wrap job on top of aluminum.

These wheels are so expensive that we dealers have to get custom pricing directly from HRE. Figure over $10,000+ per set.
