Default Budget ProTouring look wheels

Hey guys
I got a 68 buick.GS
Front is lowered 2" has oem horseshoes
Rear is a oem Bop 10bolt with umi.upper&lowers, stock springs..
Bilstein shocks all arround.

Im looking for a budget minded wheel with a pro touring look..
Deep or step lip.

Offset AND BOLT PATTERN is the same as 68-72 CHEVELLE.

I would like to run 20x10 in the back
And 18x8-9 in the front.

Sure there are the boss338 etc but they are not real pt look.i think..
XXR has a couple designs that might fit BUT the offset is off.. I guess

I should have a 5.5bs rear
And 4.5 front
My rear fenders dont allow to much with that straight lip ( cutted & rolled inside!)


Does anybody have a nice wheel in mind?
Possible pictures? On a A-body

FORGED WHEELS are not a option $$$

Thanks alot

I put a set of Vision Torque 143's on the 69 vert I am building for my wife. Around $150 each on ebay including shipping. I don't think you will find anything for less. They are cast and a little heavy but she is not going to see any track time. She likes them and I like the price...

They have many different sizes and offsets on ebay if you search around. These are 18x8.5 +10 and 18x9.5 +12 with 255/40 and 275/40 tires.
