New wheels

So i am getting new wheels on my 04 TL, i will have a grand to spend total on wheels, and then i can get tires for dirt cheap, so can someone help me find some nice 18 X 8.5 wheels.
preferably some with a pretty decent size lip, gun metal or bronze face.
yall have good taste! so let me see some ideas
pics of my car so yall can get some looks and yall are welcome to do a photoshop of some wheels also.
specs and link to the wheels you find.
thanks alot guys!

first of all, Dont get bronze. LOL bronze doesnt match on sivler cars well. for a g? i say maybe some ronjons. aspecs thats about it for 1g. unless ur looking for used then it opens it up your options a bit more.

well that i think you can run that. however. ud have to run negative camber and stretch the tires and that roll ur fenders. its honestly gonna look hard. i say go with that. do shit thats off the wall. be agressive dont play it safe. thats for pussies of course. right now i have 18x10.5 in the rears but its a 33 offset. 9.5 up front with 33 so it's possible. honestly with my tire sizes in have somewhat of alot more space! i say DO IT

that is unless its cheap ugly rims. go RPF's dude. they will match ur ASM really good.
