Help with wheels FC

I have an 86 white fc base. I'm lookin forward to years of workin on her (just bought it a couple months ago). I'm planning to swap over to a turbo motor later on but first I'm doin the Prelims. So I'm lookin into wheels and tires. And here's where I need the help. I've got parts to do the 5 lug swap, but I can't seem to find some good wheels. I want to stick with a 16" wheel. And the fronts are going to run 225 series and the back is going to run 245 series tires. Now the tricky part. I'm looking for something in black. Just need some advice. Thank you.

Still haven't found much in the way of good looking wheels. Been looking around. I'm guessing 16x8's in the back for the 245's. Then 16.7 or 7.5's for the 225's in the front. Anyone have any good suggestions.

look online and on ebay for used jdm wheel sets, that will give you an idea of whats out there, places like rbmotoring and wheelchoice and pandagarage and memoryfab have used wheels online too and for 16" sizes you can get a nice set for pretty cheap.
