Exactly. Like STK said in his first post, I'd just get some oem wheels with 26x11.5x17 ET Streets.

Exactly. Thanks for all the replies, and those rims would look real good, but i just can't afford it right now. Just looking for the cheap alternative because i saw it and it looked like not a bad idea.

bolt pattern 5 x 4.5"
Offest and backspace will depend on wheel width.
if your buying a 8" wide rim ~ 45MM off set and 5.5" BS

Any special off set or backspace... I'm probably gonna call with the specs from the S197 and ask if they have any rims that would match
