I found 17x7 Racing Hart Z5000's with 205/40/17 Kumho's for $1099 at wheelmax.com. I was wondering if there is better pricing out there. There was no designation as to what type of Kumho's were in the deal, but the from what I've seen, the quality of Ecsta Supra 712's with 280-360 treadwear, AA traction, and A temperature ratings seem OK for my driving.

Finally (a stretch), does anyone have a pic of Z5000's on a Celica with TRD springs installed? Thanks for the help.

Well, how about prices for 17's? I've searched around, especially the sponsor sites, and found little and now I've read in Buyer Feedback where wheelmax.com isn't exactly reliable. Are there other solid sites out there for buying 17" RH Z5000's?

Thanks for your help. That's what I usually do. Get the best price out of a group then go back to the place I trust the most and buy from them if they match.

X-evil-x has the Z5's and I think he has a TRD drop too. His pics are always in the readers rides forum.

I'm not looking to go that low however. TRD springs suit my needs just fine. Speaking of your setup, I meant to remark that your's was the first that I saw with the Z5000's. That's all. Personified mentioned you may have TRD springs.
