Trying to decide on wheels, have a few questions..

I'm gonna lower my car with the Eibach Pro-Kit and get some wheels for it. I'm leaning towards TT2's but I have a few questions. I want 17" wheels with 17X9.5's on the front and either the same on back or 17X11's on back, but what is that backspacing for wheels on our cars? What modifications will I have to make to fit 17X11's on the rear of a lowered car?

Where is a good place to buy TT2's?

My second choice would probably be SLP or Ronal firehawk style wheels. Does SLP offer the firehawk wheels with any color other then black, my car is red and I don't know how the black wheels would look?

Thanks

You can get custom painted ones from Ronal direct, but you'll pay for it. I don't know the backspacing, sorry.
