Default Torque Thrusts

the tire place quoted me $1050 for 17" X 9.5" fronts and 17" X 11" rears. they are the chrome lip and dark gray spokes.

now i think that is really high, but what do you guys think?

That's about right now are you looking for glossy painted centers? AR does not do the glossy painted centers just the flat painted ones.
