Thanks! I live in Windsor and its cheaper for me just to drive over and do a wheel swap than to mess with duty fees or inflated Canadian prices.

Discount Tire and Belle Tire at Great Lakes shopping area are good people to deal with, it's just a bit north on I-75 Baldwin exit. you Also you can go on line pick your car color and try different rims on the car to see how they look.

Belle Tire/Discount tire are your best bet like mach1 said. My buddies in Detroit didn't know squat,Sorry.. I've done all by buiseness w/ Belle Tire. they'll give you the best deal, or match anything lower than there prices. There a Belle tire on Ford road in Garden City. That 20 min from the bridge of 94 W.

The reason I was saying to go to Great Lakes Mall is theres lots of pretty women, Pro Bass Shop, Movies, Steak Houses, all with in walking distance of the tire stores. Just a good enterainment area to go to.

Another shop you might want to try is Harlow tire in Westland. Huge rim and tire selection. And these guys know their stuff! Just down the road from GardenCity. Follow the link----> Harlow Racing

Just to update...

Ended up going to Belle Tire in Sterling Heights (across from Oakland Mall). I talked to Mike there who gave me great service and a good deal on 17x9 chrome cobra r wheels. Car looks great!
