17x7.5's would be nice!
i'm not really all that concerned about weight, anything lighter than stock!
cost, well.....i'd like to keep wheels/tires combo under $2000.
thanks again!

i'm serious....but even if i manage to get u a good deal, the shipping charge will be expensive from hong kong to the states as they're quite heavy.

do you want me to quote you on the 17" hamann's?
