17 x 7.5"? I believe the widest you can go is 245. Yuck.

Again, 17x8? I hate to burst your bubble, but unless you're going for that classic look withsome 17 inch bullitts, you'd be better off putting this money in something else. I know you're probably looking at wheels that will fit your existing tires, but wouldn't you much rather save some more, and but some nicer wheels (18 inch and up) that you can wrap in 255s at the least? Skinny stock tires don't look good out back imo.

The Bremmers would look great on there. I would just say do some searches around here and find what you want. Then find them on the net as cheap as possible including shipping. Then ask about where your getting them from on here if you dont know if they are reputatible or not.

The biggest thing most people are gonna tell you. Also that I suggest to is go 18inch or bigger and go atleast 9 inches wide. Like i and other said, those big fat meats on the back will look really good

I got wheels similar to the ones you like but I got mine in chrome 20x8.5 & 20x10. They ride just as good as the factory 17" rims.
