Best place to find used 18" rims for track use?

I'm looking at picking up a set of dedicated track rims
From what I've seen, 18" take-off slicks are relatively easy to find in appropriate sizes for an FD (as compared to 16 or 17" sizes), which is why I'm looking for 18" rims
From what I gather, +50 offset will be necessary
Looking for a staggered set, and appearance really doesn't matter as long as the fit is good
Any recommended sources for such a thing? The local community doesn't have a big enough population to find what I want, and the boards here are pretty sparse as well
Any other input would be appreciated as well (ie sources for used slicks, 17" vs 18", other vehicles that use the same offset/bolt pattern, etc)
Thanks

check your local mustang forum. the most recent generation has a fairly high offset (~+40 IIRC) and usually runs a 9/10 stagger.
