Then it was $180 for a local shop here to take the tires of my stock 17's, remove the TPS sensors, remount the tires to the stock wheels with 4 new valvestems, mount the TPS sensor in the new wheels, mount the tires, balance the wheels, and a set of tuner lug nuts with key.
Total: $1,938
Cant beat it with a stick!

The fronts are some crap brand, Wanli's, those were $240 for the pair.

ahh ebay.
Hey I ran Wanli's for the front on my Touring 18's and they held up fine for a good 8 thousand miles. I took them off and they're still good even though they have a 'lil feathering.

I do have a couple questions for the Hiro guys - Do I need centering rings for these or are they hubcentric? Will my stock wheel lugs work to put em on? Will my TPS alarm go off if I don't transfer the sensors? Do I need an alignment? - thanks in advance!
I'll post pics of em on my Daytona Blue as soon as I get them on (assuming we don't get snow dumped in the next few days).
Later - T

I can't believe no one else out bid me! (there was like 800 views):

What size tires are you Hiro Guys running if you have a 19x10.5" wide wheel in back? the 275/35/19's look a little stretched on a 10.5" What's the next best size? I'm watching some hiro's on ebay right now and they come with 8.5 fronts and 10.5 rears, thats why I'm asking.
