Default reccomendation on cheap 18" replacements

Hey, I'm looking at getting some cheap 18s that I can use to replace my 16" oem wheels. these will be the wheels that i will end up selling with the car when the time comes.

any reccomendations on wheels that look oem, don't have a lip, and are relatively abundant (no more rare wheels for me)? I was looking at the SC430 wheels but if I go that route I will have to get the ones with the updated center caps. I love how the LS430 18" wheels look. I also really like how the RX330 18" wheels look but they are only a 7" width. Preferably I'd rather get 18x8 all around but 18x7.5 is ok.

oh, and when i'm talking cheap... like 5-600 for the rims total.... see, i said cheap

someone is selling the sc430 rims in the classified section within your price range. you should jump on it. i've seen those wheels on our sc's before and i think it looks pretty good. the ls430 18's are really cool too. if i could find them cheap, i'd buy them.

I like the SILVER IS300 wheels..... is your car light color? if so then the Graphite finish might look real nice.
