Time for new wheels! Help me choose!

Well since my engine swap is finshed, I think that I should treat myself to some new wheels! I will be getting them at Les Schwab. My budget is $125 per wheel. I am looking at:

Allied:
Type 81 - Rock Crawlers
Type 54 - Rock Crwaler w/fake beadlocks

Ultra:
Type 164
Type 162 - just like the 164 only w/fake beadlocks (can get color rings )

You can see them at Les Schwab's online brochure: http://www.lesschwab.com/wheels/Default.asp#
just go through the pages and you'll find them.

Now I know that the Allied's are a differnt design from the Ultra's but I want to know who has which of these wheel and how you like them. I will be upgrading to 31's and will be upgrading to 33's adventually and do not want to have to buy new wheels when I upgrade to 33's. What size of wheel should I get and what back spacing? Are the Ultra's alluminum? I think that the Ultra's would look better on my rig but im not sure if they are to expensive? Anyone have any pics of any of these wheels on their rig?
Thanks!

My vote is for the 81's, I never was much for the fake beadlocks.
