 Everyone knows Minilite and panasport, my pocketbook dosen't go up to those numbers most of the time.  When I was faced with needing a new set of wheels for a custom project (my JH is flared) I found two that I hadn't seen anyone talking about:

1) Diamond Racing wheels (http://www.diamondracingwheels.com/)

A simple, no-nonsense all steel stamped wheel nascar style.  They have a few lightweight options including 12-20lbs wheels, which are great for a steel wheel.  My 15x8 weight only 16lbs.  They will make the wheel in any offset you need and have the rare 4x4 pattern.  Shipped to my door for around $80 a wheel and took only 3 weeks.  These are great wheels- who says you need aluminum and magnesium when your on a budget?  Make good backups.

2) Superlite wheels (http://www.packracingproducts.com/acatalog/Pack_Racing_Products_Superlite_Wheels_2.html)

Nice copies of minilite stlye wheels made in Australia from what I understand.  Decent quality castings and low cost ($150 a wheel).  Got mine in 4x4 no problem, and with a hard to get backspace.  Great selection if you need 13" wheels up to 16" for the JH, don't know if they make an exact replacement sized for the stock wheels.
