This is for a rally red Evo IX MR. Here are the three choices. First is all black 17x8 from tirerack for $500. Second is black with red lip 17x8 from dragwheels for $500. Third is black with red lip 18x8 from glinewheels for $450. The third is biggest and also cheapest.
Keeping my stock rims is not an option, they're broken.

haha!
on another note, If its not your DD then I'd opt to save money and get some nicer wheels. I'm a firm believer in you get what you pay for. Like said before talk to WheelDude, hes got some nice wheels at a good price.

First person to ever say that. That's kinda what I'm leaning towards as well. I mean what can possibly go wrong? its not like i'm gonna drive over a bump and they'll crack in half. and if anything i can always upgrade sometime later in the future. just can't afford it right now

Yes.. Go with the cheapest set of wheels. That way later on when you come to the conclusion that you no longer like the cheap set of wheel you purchased you will have lost less money on the first purchase.

Previous owner of the wheels bought them from wheeldude. 
I told myself the same thing about 17's but now am in love with the 18's.. I wouldn't suggest 17X7.5 
I got these on here for 660 Shipped. No tires. Have you tried looking around.

Yeah I actually love those Rota G-Force! They look really nice! but not so big on downgrading to 7.5 width, and cant afford the 18's at the very moment :/ maybe I'll wait a few weeks and get those in 18's. We'll see what tomorrow brings to me

Out of those three i'd go with the motegi, never seen them on a evo and i actually like them for what they are. The drag wheel is played out and the 3rd wheel i don't like at alllll.
For got about that.

Look in the Private 'Evo 1 - 9' For Sale / Wanted / WHeel / Tires section..
Pretty sure you can find some MR BBS or SE BBS for around 500-700 with tires.
If I had to choose, #1.
