I paid $11k rims only for my Merc without first doing other mods, I've never tracked it with them on, I put the stock AMG forged rims on for that, they're cheaper to replace if I damage one.
There is a noticeable difference with the way the car launches when I swap them for the stock rims.
Why'd I pay $11k for four rims, because I liked the look of them and anything less would have looked cheap, I'd buy the Carbon Fibre rims at $16K but they don't float my boat, I'd have to have a coating applied to get rid of the CF look and that would defeat much of the appeal of owning them.
Mod your car how you like, some people go bling, some go power, some go both, my only advice would be if you choose the power route then do your brakes first.
