17" wheel question

Does anyone know where I can get 17" wheels that don't cost several hundred dollars each and won't make be look like the "king of bling"?

What ever happened to basic truck wheels? Not everyone wants wheels that require a 2nd mortgage to purchase.

Never priced them, but Mickey Thompson has a set of wheels called the classic / classic IIthat look really good.

Check out Ebay as well there is a company on there that offers chromed options to many factory wheels. My dad's factory painted 17's would look pretty good chromed.

Rims (and tennis shoes) can get to be pretty ugly, but you should be able to find some good looking ones still.

Did a quick search to find this web site. Seems like decent prices on some good looking "shoes" (IMO).

And summit racing has the classics as well. www.summitracing.com

The biggest problem I have is finding something with that da__ 135mm bolt circle.
What idiot came up with that idea in the first place?
You can find rims to fit anything out there except the new 150s!!!

Check www.4wheelparts.com, I saw some good deals on Weld wheels in the clearance section.
