Default Need ideas of inexpensive wheels that looks nice......

I really like the looks of the Work T1S and the DPE, and Iforged models that look similar. Does anybody make a wheel that is less than 14 or 15 hundred that looks similar to this style of wheel. I am interested in 19x10 and 19x8.5

I would save up to get the real deal. Sure it may take awhile but its so worth it, also when *not if but when* you get your first scratch or nick you can really go ballistic

Depends on your model. There are alot more options for the250, as opposed to the 350.

Well I ordered a set of Works almost 3 months ago and they still aren't here. I am getting pissed. I really don't drive cars that long and figure to get rid of this car in less than a year or so. I am just getting frustrated with the slow pace of Work and am beginning to wonder if spending that much on wheels for sub 40K car is a smart idea.
I may just keep the stock ones and run some H&R spacers.
