Wheel suggestion: '99 Saturn SL2

I am picking up a 1999 Saturn SL2 for my winter car, but I really wanna put some cheap wheels on it. It's hard to pick something to compliment the car, since it's so weird shaped.



I was thinking these 2 I found at Discount Tire website



OR



I'm open to any suggestions, as long as they don't cost me more than $350 or so for the set! Wheels are 15", as the tires that are on the car are brand new and don't wanna buy more, and from researching flush offset would be +35 or so. Thanks in advance for replies!

LOL...I have the EXACT same beater. Blue 99 Saturn SL2. Yours looks alot prettier than mine though. Mine looks like someone used steel wool to dry the car off after washes. I always thought a nice 2" drop with some white 17s would look pretty good, but I think I'll just save the cash for my G. Honestly I don't think the OE wheels looks that bad. Unfortunately any cheap aftermarket wheel is probably gonna look kinda rice. Just hop on tirerack or discount tire and use their programs to display on the vehicle to see what looks best.

Anyway, just thought I'd say BUMP for a reliable beater.

I'm picking this saturn up for a grand, too. 166k miles, engine rebuilt in June, brand new tires on it last week. And I can't find any of these saturns online with aftermarket wheels to get a feel for anything. It sucks.
