Default Wheel set up Pic requests

We all love showing off our cars and I'm undecided on a wheel set up for my Z16 so help a dude out!

Looking to do a square set up MUST fit in the factory wheel wells... or at least mostly, its still a street driven car lol

Brands i'm looking at:

-Apex Flow formed wheels (I'm a cheap date)

-Stock 18" speedlines

-Spec Racing SC5R wheels

-Others are welcome, looking for a good looking set that doesn't break the bank

Thanks!

I fall into the "mostly fit" category, lol. APEX 18x12.5 square with 315 tires. The tires stick out a tad at ride height but still tuck in under compression with only a tiny bit of smoke.

Not square, but OEM Z06 sizes, so they fit the wheel well. CCW Race Classics - 17x9.5 front (255/40/17) and 18x10.5 rear (295/35/18).
