Not exactly cheap, i mean comparativly?
Jegs sells them for $280
wheelsforless.com (are these guys for real?) wants $260
Im talking the 17 x 9.5

Also, im not sure what backspacing I should be looking at for these.

I am in the process of getting some 17x9.5's for mine, the backspacing is 5.5 for front and rear, those are custom offsets, so there more expensive, American racing.com lists them for like 350 a piece, so if you found them for 250 thats a steal !

Ya 17x9.5 with a 5.5 backspacing will fit 275/45/17 all the way around. Im thinking of these rims also in either that size or 17x11's in the rear with 315's for that you ned a 6inch back spaing for them to fit with out any prob.

I priced a set at sears awhile back I belive it was like 2200 with some ****ty tires. like BFG comp TA's or something. I dont rem.
