Cheapest Place for Snypers

I am going to be buying ROH Snyper rims 17x9 for
my 89 RS. The cheapes price I have found so far
is Group A wheels for $878.00 with chrome lugs
and wheel locks shipped to my door. Does anyone
know any places cheaper then this?
My Second question is what size and Brand Tires
should I get?? I was told 275-40-17 would be best
for my car.

I want a good tire. I only drive in Summer. No winter
I don't want to spend a Ton but want a quality tire.
Please reccomend tires

Chuck Every Recommended the Kumho ECSTA Supra 712 at $113 each. See the link.

Check at www.jdwheels.com They were right around the same price that you got quoted from the other place, I think mine was like $861.00 to my door. They are some real good people to deal with and have extremley fast shipping.

I would recommend three types of tires....1. Goodyear Eagle F1's...these stick like super glue to the pavement howver are a bit pricey.........2. BFG Radial T/A's also very good...affordable they stick well and smoke well also......and laat but not least....Nitto Drag Radials.....bascially the cheaper form of Eagle F1's.....they do stick as good as hell though...my choice.....BFG Radial T/A's whitewall lettering b/c it looks bad *** and htey can be really big and fat

Transmission: T5, looking for t-56
I got mine from groupawheels also,but looks like jdwheels may be a few dollars cheaper. And the 275's would work really well.I thought about going up one and trying the 285's on my next set.
