Rims on my fd?

Hey guys i'm looking for rims for my fd. I know what I want but can't find anything within a good price range. I'm looking for 18x8/8.5 and 18x9/9.5 .I'm looking for some recommendations from you guys.

Well my ideal wheels would be any of the HRE 540's series. But theres no way I would be able to afford HRE wheels. I don't really care about the name of the brand or the quality so if anyone knows any replicas of HRE that would be perfect. Basically i'm looking for any mesh or spoke rims that have a pretty big lip. Lip is pretty big deal and I'm looking for maybe a 2-3 inch upfront and a 3+ in rear. I really like BBS but they have absoultly no lip. And I don't want the rims that have the cheating lip(basically the spokes curve foward so its parallel to tire but technically has a big lip). Well there are my picky preferences and any suggestions would be really help me either if they are big brands or no names. I'm looking to spend around $1,000-2,000 on rims without tires. Thanks for the help in advance.

Just tell him the size, price range, use and style. He'll find something (if there is anything) which will match.

I lip like this? These are 17x8.5 in front and 17x9.5 in the rear. The rear lip is 4 inches. I guess you might classify this as the "cheating lip"
