I'm about to give up.

Does anybody make a 16 x 8 wheel for my car with the following criteria?

1. 5 star-deep dish type(not the flat faced FWD looking wheels)
2. Bolts right on(no spacers or adapters)
3. Just plain finish(Doesnt have to be chrome or polished)
4. Costs 100-150.00 each

I know the last one makes it a little tough, but I see plenty of new wheels(like by Eagle) that are in this price range. I've been online and to wheel specialty shops with no luck.

If I dont find somethingg soon, I'm just gonna order a new set of black GTA wheels form Classic Ind. That was my backup choice.

help!

Thanks..I saw one set I liked, but they're steel...I'd like to stick with aluminum.

Anybody have any other ideas?

i wouldn't be too picky. steel, aluminum, it's all good. 50 bucks can't go wrong

I know..I'm just a little phobic about losing any time in the 1/4 mile.
