Default Where to buy budget 18x12 wheel?

Anyone know where I can buy some 18x11.5 or 18x12 for a reasonably price that will fit a c5 coupe? I don't want to spend alot of money just for track wheels. I wish they still had the 18x12 zo6 wheels.

Not a big fan of the c6zo6 look but looks like it is going to have to be them.

there is an 18x12 in a cheap wheel? if so sign me up! I've yet to find one. I heard someone produced a 18x12 repo of the c5z wheel, but that was very limited production.

Can you get by with 4 18X10.5 Speedline GM wheels? You can put
315-35-18's at all 4 corners and it will work great on your C5 coupe.

Bob at House of wheels is where I bought 4 New GM 18X10.5 wheels for about $850.00 shipped.

I am thinking I will go with the 315's next. I just bought a set of ra1's in 305 so we will see how these do.
