2k 7 spoke rims on a 4th gen...just a few questions

i have a white 96 SE and thinking bout getting rims. if it were easy enough i'd wanna get Momo Arrows but those are extremely rare these days. or borbet type R, but those are discontinued as well, so im thinking just for this summer to get some 2k max rims the 7 spoke ones. does anyone have this setup? white 96 max with 2k rims? if so could you post some pics. thanks. now onto the questions.

1. what price should i be expecting when looking to buy a set with rubber?
2. will bigger brake calipers/rotors fit with these rims?
3. are they a direct bolt on? do they need any spacers? etc etc
4. should i get chrome or the regular ones?

Thanks

IMO, i hate how the non-center capped 5th gen 2k wheels look. Spend between 6-800 for the 2k2-2k3 rims (Titanium editions look hot). 2k's look ok, but spend another buck for the nicer set.

also, if you are buying them with tires, if they are potenzas, plan on replacing them ASAP, as the stock tires suck hardcore.

Huh?
I don't understand.
That just doesn't make much sense.
2000-2001 has the center caps that don't show the lugs(17", of course)
2002-2003 has the lugs showing, but same rim otherwise.

I would not get the 6th gen wheels.
They weigh a TON! literally....

hey whats up, i saw your car at Temple i think yesterday. Pretty damn hot I must say.

For the record, i say get the titanium editions as well. I will be doing the same thing this summer. They look so good on our cars, and you dont have to spend a lot of money for some new rims.

i just put my 2k 17s on to bring the value of the car up cause i was about to sell it, but now since i am jeeping the car for a while more, these damn wheels hold me back too much, not to mention the crappy tires have me sliding everywhere in the rain
