Default Affordable Bronze Wheels?

So, I am convinced I want to put bronze wheels on my PW. I have searched everywhere and can't seem to find any affordable - I think the Volks are too expensive. Am looking for 19s or 20s, does anyone know of any? Thanks in advance.

Factory Sport wheels powder-coated bronze if you can't afford anything else.

I think the Works are still high, and they don't make them larger then 18 (looking for 19-20). I hate to spend this type of money on wheels - I prefer to put the 1000s towards my race program (which is more important

I've thought of powdercoating the stockies but not sure if I want to mess with the durability through a heating process - not enough info/testing to proceed with that - last thing I want to do is have a wheel break during a spirited drive.

Thanks for feedback though

I saw no 19s or 20s from DTD or Tirerack - are you sure you saw it there? 5Zigens were in 18s.
