I see some Vette 18X9.5s for sale on Ebay for around $100 a piece plus shipping. Can they be found cheaper?

Charlie I tried the 17s ,they don't work that well on the G8, they are actually 3/4" smaller on dia. and 2" smaller in cir. than advertised. I returned them for this reason and MT accepted them back. The 265-40-18 MT ET Street Radial is the tire . George, I paid $200 for 2 17x9s and 2 18x9.5 with cap and lugs. got them on Craigs list.com

M&Hs are 27in. Stock are 26.8 or 26.9 for 19s. That should be perfect!

200 for all 4? That's a good price.

I guess I need to start checking craigslist.
