Default Yay, new project

WELL, a broken rim turned into a whole new project. I was looking on ebay to replace a cracked rim (cheesy stock 20" wheels)...anyways...cant find one of those wheels used for under 195$. Being that my wheels are custom done (picture)...hopefully I will be able to get around 800$ for them, after I take them off, take off the rubber, and touch up the wheels and make them look like new because the paint on the wheels is getting shotty seeing how i never clear coated them. SO, I want to buy a set of 20x10 helo maxx 6 wheels which go for around 799 is the cheapest I can find them. With that, I will need to do the front end leveling kit which I already have the keyways for. I talked to the guy at the shop andhe said around 550 to do the whole kit and cabootle. And in the future once I have more money...I want to get a set of Nitto Terra Grapplers because with an offset wheel those terra grapplers look sick sticking out from the side of the truck. Do you guys think I can get good money for my wheels if I get them looking good? Just sucks working with like no budget. because even if I do get 800$ for my wheels, its plus 100$ for the shipping of the new wheels IF I can still find them for 800$, then whatever it costs to get them mounted and balanced, whatever it will cost to get 3 other spare wheels to ride on until I have everything done, and the 550 sumodd$ for the front end lift. Its still going to be a costly project in the long run but its gunna look sick!! BTW for those who dont know, its an 03' graphite quad cab 4x4 with a short bed. Im trying to keep the chrome to a minimum because I like the dark look.
