price sounds quite high.

and 225 and 245 width tires look silly on a 9inch wide rim. way too skinny.

but i just found out that there is a place that is near my house its a kaltire and they can get the 17x9 4bolt chrome cobra R's for 257.99 each but on the site it says that they are for FWD but my plan is to go down there and get those but im not sure what tires to get since they dont come with them what would u think is best i would like as big as possible in the bak, so what would u say is good for 17's

US 169 is equal to Canadian 187 so 4 wheels would cost you 748 + tires.

07 GT500 style. dare I say it, but Chrome. It will look good with your blue car...especially since you have the white stripes.
