Here is the car I need to pic wheels for:



Sorry for lack of better pictures.
As you can see, it's a, 80's widebody. I want to keep the 80's style to it, not the flashy new style wheels. Or maybe modern race style wheels (FN01R-C's come to mind)
I had originally planned boss .338's in gray with chrome lip, but 18" wheels are too big...the tires look like rubber bands because of the low profile then.
but, finding a good wheel style is hard for my specs. 16 or 17 inch wheels, 8-9 inch fronts and 9-10 inch rears. Offset will need to be negitives... I can use spacers, but the lower offset the better, cause the negitive offsets always have awesome dish or concave. Probably somewhere in the -20's in rear for a 9 inch wide rear, and -5 to -15 in the front for an 8 inch wide. I'd rather need a small spacer to fine tune the fitment then have some overly aggressive offset or widths poking out. i don't want poke...at all. flush.
bolt pattern is 5x114.3
any idea's?
I don't car if I have to buy used. Looking to spend around 1k or less for all 4. I will be dropping the car on coilovers this winter, so wheels aren't until next spring, but I'd like to find and know of the rim I want so I can keep a look out in the classifieds or stores
so, old school big lip wheels...
shoot!
