It's a Cavalier
That's so bad. The OP should be glad that the ugly *** wheels cover them up. Throw a five spoke or loose mesh wheel on there.... ugh. He has to repaint those things.

You are gonna have a hard time finding good rims for under 450 for the whole set. Could you go with under 800? Under 800 would open a lot more options up than 450. 450 gives you almost nothing good to choose from... And my advice is not to paint the calipers a flashy color. Just go with black or gray
