200 to widen them?
you can buy them new cheap enough. you can also use opel and mini ones but you need to open the centre bore by 1mm.

How about these Weller steelies:

OK, they're 15", but have the right stud spacing and approximate offset.

et30 would not too low et for the size he wants to widen them by. you can pick up a set of senic/megan steelies for 80 quid, sometimes less.

the problem is the scenic rims have an et49, which means I will need spacers. I dont really want to use spacers. and if you can find them for 80 or less please let me know as I cant find any. but then again I probably aint tried hard enough.
