Ya all 4. Its a very good price. The only other wheels in that caliber are sold by tire rack..think they are TR motorsport mc and they are $650-700. 17x9 +63 at about 19 lbs each. Motegi and konig sell a wheel that uses same technology, but they are 18s, and their offsets are hard to fit. Plus 18 in tires cost a good deal more.

Yea your buddy was talking about forged wheels which usually start in the $2k range new. Used you can get forged wheels cheap, or you can buy the two previously posted cast wheels (new) for cheap. All up to you. Forged = lighter, a little stronger, but a bit more expensive.

Beware of cast wheels though as some companies make them cheaply and they will bend/crack very easily. You can end up spending more money than if you bought a set of higher quality wheels in the first place. From my experience, Enkei RPF1's have good strength and from what I've heard so do the TSW's. I would just be careful and do research on any wheel you will be buying.
