I'm trying to update my car without changing the overall "feeling" of it. Its not quite "newstalgia" look - well - maybe it is- that I'm going for. For instance my cd player is a sony with 2 knobs and a rounded display because it recalls to the older style stereo as opposed to single know units used now.

The custom audio would have looked too close.
Now I'm looking for rims (have been for months) that pick up the vibe of the old car, maybe the pontiac rallyes, or maybe to the AR 200s. They've got to have some curve. They've got to be chrome (sorry no-bling guys - this is a convertible and my girl deserves jewelry). They've got to be 17" or 18" to clear the binders and they've got to come in at the $300 range. No TT2's or rims with little holes throughout. I know I don't want coys or 338s. So what else do you have? So far I've looked at AR 200s and Foose Legend Nitrous but I'm open to anything. Any input (without wisecracks) you could give, especially with pics would be great. I know I'm not the only one that spends his lunch hour looking at wheel porn so I figure you guys have ideas. You could also give your opinion on the wheels below (again, please keep in mind the above requirements and refrain from wisecracks). Thanks
