Default there is...

Stilauto SR300, but I don't like it personally:

I like PES wheels, but they're 18x8:

Or how about SSR Comp. Light, but I've heard it's not too strong. Not sure if it comes in 18":

Default Yup. too rich for my blood. Bought my 5 PES wheel/tire set used for $1250 shipped. :)

Hell of a deal. The 5th wheel has a small crack and bend, but it's perfectly usable as a spare.
