Default New, Cheap 17x9's

Hey I just got a cheap set of decent 17x9's +38. I just test fitted the wheel and fits with no problems. Will be running either 275 or 295's on these. I was looking for wider wheels and did not have the dough for the expensive ones.

got them off ebay for $400.

I'm jealous...for now
I only have 17x8's but will be going for some 17x10's shortly for the road course set up...I'm going to toss flares on my coupe for that though.

just showin them off. Just got them and test fit them. They are double drilled too 5x100 and 5x114 and I figure he has a crap load of them and is accepting offers on ebay so i offered 300 plus the 100 for shipping so $400 shipped to me for them.

I will get an exact weight tomorrow on these. But I just needed a cheap solution for wheels and found it. I ideally want 17x10's but that will have to wait.

what kind of work do you have done, besides coilovers, to allow for such wide wheels?

and may I suggest painting the something other then chrome?
