My own experience, which i think you are in too, is just wait. Do not be to excited to buy those wheels. Yes most of the good ones are very expensive. There are cheap one like the rugers and forgestars but lets face it we get what we pay for. if you get your excitment contained you can get the quality of the expensive onses for the cheaper price. 2nd hand hres or champions are the way to go. In time you will bump into a seller of good wheels for your price. They may not be perfect but suit your need.

Excellent advise and I agree. The hunt is the best part. I got so much done in the last 3 weeks on the car and don't need to finish all at once. My new turbo lid looks awesome. New emblems on way.

What you pay for.

Sometimes you get more, such as Rugers.
I had OE Sport Classics on one 997 that was Sold.
When I bought this Targa, wanted the same look.
I was more than surprised how well they were made and finished.
Balancing also very good too.
