Re: Looking for 17 inch rims......
Selling my car actually, the rims are the ones in my sig pic. Had this current set of tires on for about 3-4 months. Had an offer for $1000, i'd let them go for the same price because this kid hasn't come up with the cash. Already mounted and balanced on the tires. Probably more than you're looking for used though but they're basically new so i'm selling them for a little more. PM me if you're interested..

Re: Looking for 17 inch rims......
Go with 18's while you are at it, whats the point of getting 17's and 18's are SO MUCH better? They dont cost much more than 17's either...
Check your local craigslist...

Because 17s have looks and slightly better function as far as rolling weight goes.

no, actually, 18s are the biggest you can go with no rubbing or wheel well mods on cavis.

You can only put select 19's on, depending on the width. Thats why i said 18's because of their width measurements.
On the other hand, I have never heard about 20's on a J w/o modification of the wheel well.
