I'm running 17 x 8 Hopsters. My car has an oddball brake/offset combination, so I HAD to go custom backspace to get the 5-1/8" I needed. Was only ~$25 a wheel more.
I ordered the hopsters in 17x7 w235/45/17 all the way around will post a pic when i get them on!!
ARPM said:These ones cost $160.00 + accesories (Spinners and center decals) are 17x8 4.5" backspacing
Also curious as to what these are and where to get them in 17" for $160.

md, don't you know that's the hot new custom look this year? haha. I do need to get wind up ones or something, they have about an extra 2 feet of length I don't need.
Dang, $25 extra per wheel, I was told it was about $50, otherwise I may have waited for the hopsters...but an extra 2 bills was more than I was willing to go since I was getting tt2's for $214 a piece.
well here's the new pic with the tt2's and the grab a trak suspension installed(and no seatbelt, sorry md). Still think the Hopsters were better, but too late now. I just can't wait to get it back from the alignment shop tomorrow morning to go on a full speed cruise, it felt like a different car driving it there this morning. Any recommendation for quieting the sound of the gravel etc flying up into the rear wheel well? I was thinking some rubberized undercoating because it's pretty loud at low speed before the engines running louder.

That would be my geekmobile, are you jealous? haha. Best thing about that job is that now I have another car to drive while I do work on my mustang. The bad side is, I hardly drive my mustang now, but the advantage is driving 30 miles each way to work it makes a huge difference with Cali gas prices(that's an extra $250 a month for mustang goodies!!).
