Default ALLOYS!!!

It can't be that hard to find some reasonably priced alloys, or so i would have thought before i tried actually looking for some. The cheapest ones i've found that look any good (18") are £600! Which is about twice what i ideally wanted to pay! If anyone knows of any 17" or 18" 5-stud alloys going cheap then please, PLEASE let me know! I really need some bigger rims on my machine.
Thanks guys,

Looking at your sig I'm guessing you are a They Might be Giants Fan! Cool stuff. Their music just blew me away - so fresh different and funny. If I hear of some alloys I'll post them up here. I presume that you have tried ebay?

Did you ever get the pics done of the alloys MiniMaz?

Has anyone else got any, or does anyone else know anyone that's selling off some alloy wheels for cheap! I really need some and soon, well, within a couple of weeks anyway.

Thanks again all,
