Hi Steve,

I bought the spacers off of eBay, they ended up being $270 all said and done iirc. The guy sells them for $140, but I added a wheel centric lip for $100 and needed different thicknesses front and rear (which added another $30). I'm VERY happy with them.

The wheels I went with are 17X8 2000 Mustang Cobra R rims. I got them off eBay new for a little over $100 a rim. I really like the way they look, and the way they let me run 245/40/17s. I didn't really want to go larger than 16, but it's the only way I could easily find a wheel wide enough to fit the amount of tire I wanted.

I can take some pictures if you want. Overall the look is similar to the Volvo Polaris rim, but I like it a bit better.

Here's their listing at Summit:
