Somewhat cheap in price, somewhat light, strong, beater wheels for a 5 lug FC?

Just wondering whats out there since i'm looking for wheels (description in title) for me to run around on without worrying about them, i do a LOT of city driving and parallel parking. No Works, Rays, SSR, BBS (includes vert), etc etc. Anything 17" (and under) with the width of 7" (and wider) is good enough.

mustang wheels... 17x8 and 17x9 can be had dirt cheap and some years have offsets that fit an FC perfectly. the tires on them usually are too tall and need to be changed out for a shorter sidewall series but at least you can find mustang wheels for dirt cheap almost anywhere.

also a lot of used wheels on ebay for Fc and 240sx and supra and MR2, etc in widths like 7.5 and 8 are cheaper since everyone likes a nice wide stance... you can get a set of real deal 3 piece wheels on the cheap if you dont go superwide.

rbmotoring.com has a lot of nice used wheels, some are not too pricey.

if you keep your eye out you can find a set of volk/Work/Enkei/Watanabe/etc in 16x7 or 8 or 9 for dirt cheap because everyone wants 17" wheels

also tough to beat a set of Turbo2 wheels, theyre all over the place and dirt cheap.

are you near NY because I have the set off my car if you want them for cheap.
