Help finding steel wheels

I'm two seconds away from pressing the checkout button but would like some insight on where I can find steel wheels. I don't feel the need to dress up the winter tires with alloy rims, so any suggestions on finding the proper steel wheels would be helpful.
Does 16" Steelwheels automatically fit all 16" tires? Or does it have specifications and size limits as well?
The size for the Michelin-X Ice are 225/50QR16 / 205/55QR16.
If worse comes to worst, I'd be purchasing the alloy rims, and if that's the case I would llike suggestions as well. The ones that come with the tires on tirerack is simply a horror to look at.
Anyway, thanks in advanced and early holiday wishes,
Jeff

As far as I know, there are no steelies available specifically for an S2000. You have to pirate them from another type of car that has a similar bolt pattern and "adequate" offset and "adequate" rim width and make a big compromise. I believe late model steelies that will fit on the Prelude may work for the S but it will be a compromise.

The Prelude wheels will not be hubcentric on the S2K and they probably do not have enough load capacity. You obviously can put them on and work but not work correctly.
