What are some of the less expensive choices for me? I'm wanting black wheels but I don't have a huge budget. I don't know what to look for with this bolt pattern.

I found some I like there, just wondering of there were any other options.

what do you mean by other options? They have just about every affordable wheel that fits our cars.

I didn't know if there was anything out there that they didn't carry.

Moved to "Wheels, Tires, Brakes & Suspension - Sponsored By Tire Rack"

As all have recommended, tire rack is great. They are a site sponsor.

there are others out there, google is your friend. I have used WheelMax in the past as well.

Tirerack has some pretty cheap junk wheels in there's list of stuff so if you pick a brand be sure and research it out. For the best weight/price/strength combo the Sparco Assetto Gara's seem to be a really good option, and they come in just about any colour you want. There's also a few sets of Rial and Borbet's on there too. OZ has a couple of sets on there including the Superturismo's and the Ultraleggera's.

TSW makes some wheels that fit but they tend to be kind of on the heavy side. Team Dynamics and Braid both make some get wheels too. I have the TD Pro Race 1.2's on my car and they are excellent. They were fairly reasonably priced at around $250 a wheel, they are also strong and light weight, plus they are the same wheels used on the Focus touring car.

When looking for wheel always research online to see what other's are saying about them. I almost made a mistake and bought some Bremmer Kraft rims but there was negative reviews all over the net of them bending really easy.

Bremmer Kraft is a Tirerack brand. So is the overwhelming majority of brands listed on the Tirerack site. All of which are made in china. There is little consistency in quality with a exception here and there.
