You can easily do it for around that price. All together, I've got $1400 in my wheel/tire combo. My wheels were $600 (all 18x10.5"), front tires were $200 shipped (brand new 275/35/18 Cooper Zeon 2XS's), And rears were $545 shipped (brand new 335/30/18 Nitto NT555R DR's). I could've saved a lot by not going so outrageous on the rear tires. Also, Tirerack may still have their deal on 295/35/18 Goodyear GS-D3's for $163/tire, if you really want 18's.
i just paid $722 for 4 shipped!!

Here is what I have so far in my cart. I think I'm going the NT-555R route with the TTMs rims. I just want to make sure my sizes sound right or if there any suggestions for change. I have 315/35-17's for the rear and 315/40-17's in the front. not sure if the fronts need to be 35's like the rear or not. Anything else I should add to the cart or change? BTW, if anyone knows a sponsor on this site that has a decent deal on these setups, let me know. I'd rather support a sight sponsor.
check out the goodyear gs-d3s for all 4 corners, you will love the traction. had them in 275/40-17s on chrome 10 spokes, and just ordered a set of them in 295/35-18s for my new c5 deep dishes.
be careful with 315s with the stock 10 bolt. you might want to plan on a new rear end with that much grip!!!

be careful, you have ordered drag radials for front and rear tires.
