You need to look at which section you're posting in...
Moved to Wheels/Tires/Brakes.

Here's a sticky in the Wheels/Tires/Brakes section.

My s10 is lowered about the same as yours and I have the same wheels. I painted my wheels black. I've been looking at buying some 18" smoothie wheels that I won't need to run spacers. Lots to choose from. Hopefully you can find something cool and please post pictures. There is a thread here about recommended wheel and tire sizes.

Found these from Jegs, They’re 18x9 and the bolt pattern is 5x120
I don’t really know what other wheels would look nice than these

While dumb ole Jegs didn't think giving the offset was necessary, other sellers did. Offset: +35mm which means the wheel mounting surface is moved outward 1.37795 inches. Resulting in a backspacing of 6.63 inches. Doubt they'll fit w/o adding spacers. Since you're shopping new wheels get ones that don't need spacers to work. A 2wd stock wheel is 15x7 with 0 offset ( the WMS is in the middle of the wheel). As you go up in size each additional inch in width will result in 1/2 inch increase in back spacing with a 0 offset wheel. A 9 inch wheel will have 5 inches of back spacing at 0 offset. Getting close to all that'll fit.
Wheels with a bunch of positive offset are meant for FWD or 4WD vehicles. At least till around 2010. Now most wheel have lots of offset.
You want to be looking at wheels with a deeper dish on the outside. These may not be your cup of tea but will give you the general idea of what a 0 offset wheel looks like depth wise.

Pretty sure he was just looking for suggestions. Not sure that is too abnormal.
