Can someone please help me out and give me a good place to get wheel/tire packs, I have a stock CL non type s and would like move one inch up and get a 17" wheel/tire package. I live in the Washington DC area but am open to purchasing online as well.

check this out for individual wheel manufacturers:

or www.rdmwheels.com or www.wheelsnext.com both have pretty good prices. email them and ask for quotes and they will usually give you a better deal than the prices listed.

We have some wheel/tire packages but our selection is limited. What I did was get the 5Zigen Copse and ordered the tires through TireRack. Even at retail prices and after mounting and balancing it worked out to be cheaper then any other place I could find online... plus, I got the exact tires I wanted.

Thanks for the replies, I'm only interested in purchasing a package, especially if its online. I dont know enough about how to read tire and rim sizes to know what will fit with what, +i'd have to get the balanced on my own.

Thanks for the help. I understand what the 225 is, what 17 is, but what does 45, or 40 represent?

The sidewall # is "Aspect Ratio". Its the ratio of the height of the tire's cross-section to its width. 45 means that the height is equal to 45% of the tire's width.

They are a huge rip off. They will charge you up the ass.
Best thing might be to find a package online. Really, unless there's a specific package out there that you really like, I'm not sure that you will save a whole lot of money by getting a packaged deal. Getting them separate allows you to get the tires that you want instead of just getting stuck with whatever the package comes with. If you get them separate, hit me up on PM, I'll let you know of a place in Hyatsville that will mount AND balence for $10 a wheel.

I went to Tire Rack because I wanted the SSR's and they weren't offered elsewhere. The package came mounted, inflated, balanced, w/lug nuts, caps, locks. All I had to do was install. About as painless as can be. Except for payment.
