I either like the Konig Tantrums or the Maximm Pursuits. 17x8 in either I would get though. Just gotta decide, and maybe look around more. Thanks for the links guys!

Well, I would like to stay under around $1000 for tires and wheels. Or at least get the wheels now, and the tires a couple weeks later. Thats more of my budget.

And I am looking for either 5, 6, or 7 spoke rims, much like the Tantrums or the SE 5th gen 6 spokes. Something like those! Thanks for the help!!

Lookout for the specials. Sometimes you can get a good deal at 100-160 per wheel.

[/QUOTE If you want a decent wheel for17" your going to have to spend a min of 200 each rim.So youll be better off,like you said,getting the wheels first and then the tires a little bit later.Trust me,youll be glad you waited rather than getting a cheaply made,knock off rim.For spoke design on a maxima,Im thinkin like Volk Racing te-37 or gt-p. Well made,lightweight,and not an imitation.try www.mackinindustries.com.
