Hey all,

I am looking to but some shoes on my baby. I am not very knowledgeable with wheels and stuff so bear with me.

I want 17's. Can anyone recommend somehwhere to go to get these for a good deal? I live in canada, so that would be a bonus. Thanks.

Also, how much am I looking at to slap rubber on all 4 rims as well?

I would reccommend nice light 17s- Kazera KZ-Vs are what I would get. $129 US from tire rack, 17.5 lbs in 17x7.

215/45WR17 is an agressive size, and Fuzion ZRi tires are $84 US in that size.

That would be $852 US, plus about $100 to get them put on. So under $1000 US, including taxes and shipping and install gets you hot, light wheels with sticky summer tires. Kinda makes me want to upgrade!

I don't know about finding them up by you, but it shouldn't be a big deal I think both wheel and tire are fairly common.

Try phoning National Tire Warehouse in Delta....just across the tunnel from Vancouver....I just picked up my new tires a couple of weeks ago. Great Service and they probably can compete with some US prices...
