Default round ones

Seriously, unless you're going to give us some more specific requirements, you will not get any useful answers here.

Start with model/year of your car, complete tire size, your expectations (performance, comfort, etc.), driving conditions/weather, etc.

As for rims, this is very subjective. Buy the ones that YOU like, not the ones that someone else tells you to.

Default you need to reconsider your budget and your priorities

1. lightweight wheels
2. strong wheels
3. inexpensive wheels

usually on a budget you can secure a combination of any 2 in the above list: lightweight + strong wheels end up being very expensive while inexpensive wheels can be strong but are not often lighweight.
