Default Tires that expensive!?!?!

I hope this is in the right forum.

I was looking at getting these Cobra R rims(17's rear 10.5/front 9) off ebay in good condition for $399 for all 4. And I went to my local tire/wheel shop and they said for all 4 tires for those rims would be $750!!!! To me thats insane for some tires. But he told me if I still got the Cobra R rims(17's but 9 rear/front) that it would be $500 which is a big price diffrence. So Im thinking just go with the 17's but 9in rear/front....whats your guy's thoughts?

Also if you were wondering I have a 99' stang 5 lug.

I've seen several people say they're crap, and several people say they're great, but for a daily driver I really like my Sumitomo HTR Z's. I got them mounted and balanced for $520. 275/40/17 front & 315/35/17 rear...
