Default Help with rims

I need help with finding a set of rims (all 4) for a reasonable price.... Im looking for some xxr 521, 522, 527, 530, 531 17/18x8.5 or even 17/18x8.75, 17/18x9 is fine also...
i currently have some msr 45 right now and theyre only 18x8, wanting something different and a bit more aggressive. dont mind if theyre used but as long as theyre not beat up...
i live in New Mexico and we dont really have much over here.... only got like 2 import shops here in the whole state so its kinda hard finding things. (Especially for Scion)

Try typing those wheels into Google. NLMotoring is one site that comes to mind.

That all depends on what you want it to look like. Use this to compare your current specs to what you're looking to buy.

If you don't know the specs of your current wheels for sure, I'd put the stock tC wheel spec in and go from there (17x7 +45).

so the inner clearance would basically be from the brake to the back of the wheel right?
