Default Warped wheel... opinions on a new set?

So I've had a set of white Drag DR31s (17x8" +35) for a little less than a year and when I got a new set of tires, the guy that rotated the tires noticed that 1 of the wheels was warped. I get a bad vibration at 70mph too. So I was looking today at either replacing all four with a set of black XXR 522 Concave Supremacy wheels with (17x9 +42) if they fit my 205/40/17s. Would that give me a good "flushness" to work with? I have 28 and 32mm spacers on the Drags now.. and they poke a little too far for me to slam

I'm going for this stance.. I know its an xb2 lol.

yea i'm pretty sure you'll have more of a flush look since your new wheels have higher width and offset than your drags. if you wanted a flush look, why not just remove the spacers so the drags don't poke out so much ;]

If I removed the spacers, they would be tucking. I'd rather have poke than tuck. I was thinking about maybe buying 17x9 Drags for just the rear instead.. I think I would miss the Drags :/ Opinions on that?

Finding a set of dr31-s shouldn't be too difficult, there are quite a few floating around.

I'm sure a quick searchtempest search will help.
