Ok, I know few of you care, but after much research I may have decided to get these.
http://www.truckextras.com/products/evo_renegade_xt.asp
Why the change? Yes they are more expensive but they can also put up with our harsh winters. The Ion rim has a 1 year guarantee and it is a three piece rim. The rim above, Weld, is a one piece high quality aluminum rim with a 5 year guarantee. I don't want the hastle of storing rims. These baby's are going to run all year long.
It's a big enough PIA storing a Focus for the winter.

I have a line on buying a six month old set of these with tires for $1600 US shipped
http://www.centerlinewheels.com/wheel_deal...ehicle&data=13#
And yes the 22's
But I don't want those tires but I may put up with them for a year or so and run the snot out of them or try and sell them and buy the tires I want. But it really isn't the look I want.

Nice choice in rims meford4u, wonder how "light" those rims actually are?
Probably still weigh more than twice what one of my rims weighs :P :rofl:

Rims would be a bit heavier, but the tire weight would sink you.

The rubber on the used tires is the nitto 440's. I'll try and post a pic he sent me.
The rubber I want is more aggresive tread like a BFG mudder.
