you picked some of my favorites! I'd say stay away from Gram Lights because everyone has them now, even me. They are awesome wheels that complement the MR2 perfectly though. The Advans are really sweet wheels...I want the new RG's. 5 spokes just seem to fit the MR2 though

I'm a fan of the bbs rgr gunmetals, I love the 8 spoked prong look and I love gunmetal as well. (it's what I have on my car so it's not like I'm biased or anything like that)

no set weight since it depends on size.
more than a pound per inch of diameter is getting on the heavy side. when you go wide it's not horrible to be a little over that though.
