Looks like a RUFF RACING R930, but I could be wrong.

could be the Ruff Racing R278s too. It's hard to really tell. I believe the 278s have been discontinued.

i am positive they are Ruff wheels and almost positive they are the 278s. I am also almost positive that these wheels have been discontinued.

FYI, with 18s you could always run a a slightly taller tire like a 275/40/18, 285/40/18, or a 295/35/18 on the rear depending on the wheel width, so you'll still get good traction.

Finding black 17s that don't look like every other wheel you've already seen won't be easy, unless you go with $$$ custom wheels.
