Default Please help me find new wheels

I want to upgrade to 17" wheels for my car. First off, where can I buy cool wheels that are the correct sizes and offsets????????? If I'm correct, the back wheels need to be 1" wider in the back. Where can I find wheels that are made 17x7.5 and 17x8.5?? All of theels I find only come in one width. Not sure what to do, or where to start. Anythig would be appreciated. Thanks.

I don't plan on lowering the car at all. I don't want rubbing, just a 17" set of cool wheels, I'll buy the correct tires to keep everything the same so miles are correct and all. I just don't know what sizes to look for.

The MF-10's are:
17x7.5 +52
17x8.5 +59

You can also look into Volk CE28N's
17x7.5 +50 ???
17x9.0 +63

Or even the BBS RG-R's 17" version:
17x7.5 +48
17x8.5 +55

These all should work fine without rubbing on NON-LOWERED/STOCK HEIGHT suspension setup.

i respectfully disagree

mf-10s and volk ce28ns... lower away. great offsets; run 225s and 255s without fear...

the bbs rg-rs...... ease up. possible rubbage when lowered, but doubtful at stock height...

Take a look at these. Reasonable price on a forged wheel.
