there's no online retailer that offers a package deal with 205/45/17..

it's always 205/40 or 215/40. where can I get my 205/45's?

If you talk with most wholesalers they will still work the deal on 215/45s or 205/45s.

if you have an EX 215/45/17 is the absolute closest match [to stock size] for a 17x7-7.5 wheel.

RedDragon; how much are you getting your VX-8s for? And did you check to see if performance plus tire has them in stock or are you going to have to wait on the wheels? I called them about my VX-8s at first, but somebody else beat their price and I went with them. I still ended up waiting a month and a half, because the wheels were so far back ordered!
