Need to find these rims for my car - help -

seriously doubt anyone would "stock" that offset, but good luck. You should just order through a local shop that way you are covered if anything goes wrong. My .02 cents

I went yesterday to Les Scwab, and they quoted me $420 a rim 
. I went today to Discount Tire, and they quoted me $355 a rim 
. The only thing now will be availability, Les Schwab said they wouldn't be able to get them until mid November. I'm getting a call from Discount tomorrow to let me know when they can get them, hopefully soon. Going with Falken Azenis for the rubber, any thoughts??

Probibly not the best choice for a winter tire, although if you arn't going to daily drive it then you should be fine. I would suggest not driving in hard rain. . .standing water is not your friend
I like the wheels though

Well I contacted 5Zigen directly, and they are out of stock on the hyperblack until the end of November. They said they had plenty of bronze and hypersilver, but that won't work for my car!! I put my order in, and now I just have to wait patiently 
.... hard thing for an evo owner to wait though!!!! Thanks to those w/input on the tires, and I'll be posting pics as soon as I get the rims & rubber put on.

I dont know who you talked to at what Les Schwab, but you should have talked to me about pricing. Its amazing working at the same company and reading about other stores and their price quotes. Anyway, apprently you cant get em till you get em but I got em in 17x9.5 bronze. Nice piece of kit.
