**UPDATE** Wheels stolen from the powder coater. **They WERE FOUND!!!**

My rims were stolen from the Powder coater. So now i have to buy some new 17's. The powdercoater has the hookup so he said i can get any set of wheels from wheelz1 for free. I have narrowed my choices down to 2.

Which ones do u guys think would look best on my car??




or



UPDATE!!!
The owner of the shop just called and said that it was someone from the shop who stole my wheels. They got them back and are coating them for free!!! Thanks for all of your help tho.

step 1: buy most expensive 17's from that site
step 2: sell them so that you profit from the loss of old wheels and the transaction with the new wheels.
step 3: purchase wheels of your preference from where ever you want.
step 4: ?????
step 5: profit

Get cash from him. If he has such a great hookup there, he might have just stolen your rims and sold them for more than he'll have to spend, although they were just rotas . . . so hmmm. . . But yeah, get cash, and get another set of slipstreams. They look good on the car, and they are better than anything that wheelz1 has.
