Default Black Lipped Wheels

I tired of the same rims and the same rims in knock-off form. I'm still wanting a clean car and obviously the biggest change you can make is the wheels to the exterior of the vehicle. I'm in search for a <U>semi-affordable</U>(under 3 grand) black lipped wheel. they seem to be impossible to find in an 18" size (staggered of course). Here's a few pictures of some forgiato's on a couple vehicles. Has anyone else searched for what I'm looking for?

What kind of car is this for? Why do you want 18" staggered rims?

The S2000 needs different size tires, front vs rear. So staggered makes sense on that car.

Yes it does in this case. Sorry, I am just use to the normal tripe of prepubescent boys wanting staggered wheels on their 82 accord cause it's 'mad jdm' or something to that extent.

As for the black lipped thing, well you could always just choose the style you want and then paint it yourself or get it painted.

sorry i meant staggered as a general term... i wasnt trying to get super technical... i'm obviously looking 2 different width sizes mainly 18x8 front and 18x9 rear, maybe a half an inch more... offsets maybe around +15 rear +35 front... something that will give me some 3-4 inch rear lip sizes and 1.5-2.25 front
