If you don't mind 8" width (in a 18" wheel), Rota D2 would probably fit in your price/look range:

Rota wheels are generally fairly lightweight compared to other inexpensive brands. They sponsor a lot of SCCA racers so their rims are also fairly stout for the money.

I have been looking and i may go with the Rota D2's in the gunmetal or bronze color. Just wanted to check with everyone if this will work. I used the fd calculator on the site and i can get 18x8's with a +30 offset and use a 235/40 tire up front and a 18x9's with a +30 offset in the rear with a 265/35 tire. and it shows both should have 0.18" clearance. i know it says i need .25" but isnt that close enough if i dont plan on lowering the car much say just a inch or so?

D Cups, nice car. It looks like you rolled fenders or widened them, no? Rubbing issues or just for show?
