Your best bet is prolly ebay for that one. Since everyone is buyin bigger rims nowadays, dealers and tire places are bein left with tons of these rims so they're ditchin 'em on ebay. You could prolly pick up a set with new/almost new tires for less than $700. Good luck! :thumbsup

what do you need spare wheels for? anticipating your wife on slamming into a curb at 50mph and cracking a wheel in half because of the trucks horrible brake performance due to its rear drums?

yeah im interested in purchasing a set of wheels which are 100% identical to the ones i own, with different tires on em possibly. good luck on finding 4 17" OEM aluminum wheels for $200 bucks or less :rolf :rolf :rolf :rolf

I thought we were ok with other peoples opinions now... you seem like you are getting a lil defensive :D

Im not being defensive at all, deals can be found though. I know the factory wheels are expensive if you buy them through the dealer but i dont know how anyone could justify what they want for them. Regardless i found a set identical to the ones i have for $150, going to put 33" cepek FC2's on them.

why not put the 33" cepek's on your current wheels? why buy identical wheels and have two sets?

Because i dont know how well they will fit. Ive been informed that because of the traction controll system that is part of the max package that if i mess with the suspension it will not work right. Not sure if this is 100 percent accurate but if it is, I dont want to screw anything up. So if i put them on spares and they dont fit right, i can just swap them back out and find somthing else to do with them
