Ok, so I'm going to be getting some new wheels in the next couple of weeks and I'm having so much difficulty choosing which ones to get. I'll make up my mind, only to change it the next day. I've decided that I'm going to get 17"s and deep dish isn't really an option, so please bear that in mind.
Here's my car:

how come deep dish isn't an option? i have a v6 with 18x9 up front and 18x10 deep dish on the back and they look great.

Well, I thinkdeep disheslook great...I'd buy them in a heartbeat, it's just that my parents have very kindly offered to buy me new tires, and I don't want to push it by asking for expensive ones.

i got all 4 for $800. BF Goodrich t/a KDW's 255's up front and 275's in the back. Don't know if that's out of your price range. Great tires by the way.

i voted for 17" black bullits...tires are cheap. when i got my car the guy had i think $120 KUMHO's on there (the ones labeled extreme performance on tire rack) but i went with the $99 dunlops with a high or ultra performance or w/e it was and they loook better IMO and get the job done just as good
if they are paying, dont rack up the bill. they will make you split it
my post doesnt make too much sense but do some research before buying tires!!! see what people like and dont like

I'm leaning toward the black bullitts...as far as tires--are Kuhmo ecstas pretty good? What about sumitomo hrt z II s?

I just don't like Korean tire manufacturers. It is all in my head I know. But my next set of tires is going to be General Exclaim UHPs. 275/40s for like $109 a piece.
And I know they aren't in your poll, but the silver FR500s would look really good on your car. For Torch Red, I usually like non-shiny rims. So I say silver FR500s or the machined 03/04 Cobras.
