I am in the market for some new wheels and tires. The cost is a factor to me so I cannot go over $1000.00 for the whole set. I don't know much about rims so I am reading and asking for advise. I want to stay with the 205/45/17 size but the rims are the problem. Being on a fixed dollar amount I am torn on what to get. First was BSA, then I read they are crap and heavy. Then it was Tenzo, got a run around from the guy I was dealing with and I left. Now I am looking at "Edge Fusions RE-7". Well are they any good?? Any opinions?? Please post here or PM me ...Any help would be great. Wish I could afford SSR's and I would be happy, but the boss only gave me 1K....

If you like the SSRs try Monzas from AK Tires. If not, a good light wheel is available from RSpeed. Any of the Rotas should fit the bill. They are good looking, fairly light and priced right. The excellent customer service from RSpeed is free and plentiful.

Take a look @ the Kosei K1's @ Tire Rack. 17 x 7.5, 45mm offset, 16.5#, and $179 each. I'm very pleased with them.
