1337, I hear you.

But that's not really my position here. First off I am trying to spend under $500. Second, I have to buy a set of wheels no matter what. I figure they might as well be lightweight and aerodynamic, if possible. I am not buying an expensive set of wheels purely for the fuel economy gain. Also, I already have the tires.

Thanks for the car-part.com suggestion, but damn, junkyards aren't cheap. $100 per used, damaged wheel? no thanks.
But like you say, I think I just have to get something that looks good to me...
