im pretty sure they were just under $700 shipped, and they shipped to my house in a day from california

and oh my does it make a difference going from 15 to 17" rims, the chrome looks so nice on my car i love it so much, new tires are also nice, i can take corners a lot better now hehe and i just hoping this wheel wax i put on works how its supposed to.i talked to this guy with a Ferrari 550 Barchetta and he uses the same wax and he said it works really good.

sorry for size but here are some nightime pics of the new wheels and a pics i took in my garage (ford f150 in background is not mine lol its my step dads)

Nice, now it's time to drop it a couple inches.

Absolutely. I see springs and struts in your future, bro. That wheel gap is terrible.

Looking good. Where'd you find those in 17"? I only looked locally, but all I could find those in were 16", 18", 20". I ended up getting some polished 17" wheels that I like alot, they don't appear to be coated either so they might take a little work to keep them looking good.

looks great but like everyone said its time to drop it a couple inches

yeah, i have all new shocks struts and springs, the new springs might be why its sittin so high up? is there anyway to lower it without getting different springs? like drop spindles possibly?

and i actually found these on ebay it took me a few months to find the 17" but you just gotta look,

here ya go i found them for ya, these are from the same dude i got mine from

just cut the springs, no need to buy a differant set.

you could just take out the rubber spring isolator. That will give you like .5 to .75 inches.
