If you think they are expensive, do you know place to get them cheaper?

I've seen the OEM ones go for around $300-$400 on the forums recently.
Keep in mind that the OEM ones will have better build quality.

What style are they so I can look out for them? Guess I'll have to take them to PowederX in TN to get them powdercoated...I had a set of black painted and the damn clear came off them.

Also, can anyone suggest tires? I think I'm gonna go with a set of 215-45-17. This gonna be ok? Would you go taller, wider?

Nevermind, figured out the style (68). Found them on a site for $449 + free shipping.

Be patient and you can find a good deal.

Wheels are low on the list so I have plenty of time to wait for a great deal. and even if one doesn't come I can get them from that site for $499 which isn't bad IMO.
