1500 w/ tires is the price (when I last checked)

Maybe a new axis might be something you will like?

Axis wheels are in Santa Fe Calif. James Chen is the owner. Maybe if you call 411/information, you can get ahold of Axis direct and get any information you need?

Do a search for wheelmax on any import car forum, this is one of the few recommendations I've ever seen! (must have got lucky).

The best bang for the buck wheel = ADR M-sport or HP Racing Evo. Both can be found for the price you listed.
