Well I got my wheels the other day and they were worth the wait. The only thing I don't like about them is it makes it more obvious that I need some drop and a 4 wheel big disc brake upgrade, other than those 2 things I love em.

Thanks for the kind words guys. It's funny I thought that 17's would fill up the wheel well more but when I stood my stock 15's next to my 17's the new ones were slightly shorter.

The total diameter has to be pretty close to stock so that odometer and speedometer will read correctly. The only real difference with a 17 inch tire is amount of sidewall will be less than the 15.

The wheels are Team Dynamics and the style is Pro Race 1's. They come in several different colors which include black and white. Check out the web site @ http://www.teamdynamicsusa.com They are super hard to fine so I you like I can give you the name of the place I got them, a local speed shop was able to order them.

who makes them?
i've been having a huge internal battle
between going for black, or white.
this may have swayed me...
Dude, go white!!! It'll look tough on the Sonic Blue
yeah,
that's what i've been thinking.
although,
if i get white,
being anything remotely like a "sleeper"
is right out the window.
also,
if i go black wheels,
i can go yellow on the calipers,
but if i go white wheels,
where do i go on the brakes? black?

The wheels from Ford Racing parts are real nice, didn't see them until after I ordered mine.
To answer Jonny's question the tires are Falkin Azenis size 205/40/zr17
As for the cost of the wheels I'm not to sure. I got the wheels/tires/mount and balance as a package price. But I would say the wheels were around $185.

Little info for ya about the white rims.... they SUCK to keep clean... absolutly blow. Even with low dust pads mine pretty much always look like they need a good cleaning. Nice thing about black.... never look dirty
So, just take that from my experence... think about how much you clean the car, and how much you want to clean the car... that should help in the decision
Ill show you an example when i can get a pic if you would like.... should have the car sometime this week
