Default Cheap alternative to CCW 505's

I am looking for wheels for my car and everything I come across is way too much for me, and that is without tires. I really like the look of the ccw 505's and was wondering if there are any wheels that look similar to them that are cheaper. I was looking at iforged too but they are too much as well. Thanks.

Honestly just save up. If you get anything that "looks" like the 505s, all you will be doing is thinking about how much you really want the real 505s everytime you see them. In the end you will disappointed you didn't get what you really wanted.

At least that is how I justify buying all my stuff I never settle for less than I what I want.

If I do get them were is the best place (cheapest) to get them. Cant find them less than like $2300. Also what backspacing and width should I get. I want 18's am looking for the staggered look but also want some wide tires on there so it looks mean from the back.

I think the only place you can buy them from is CCW directy.

I have to agree with the earlier posts that you should just save up for them; you'll be dissapointed if you don't...However, I have ADR Sterlings on my car, somewhat similiar...
