I'm guessing they might be getting the 17 inch tires in later, but I didn't want to wait too long.
After reading the blurb on Tire Rack, I guess going with a 17 inch is actually better for winter anyways, so I'd be saving money and getting better winter grip.
Normally, I'd price them out at Costco, but I needed the rims this time around too, so I figured it'd just be easier to do it all at once.

Was this after shipping? What broke the deal for me was the approx $500 for shipping, fees, and taxes which made the Tire Rack price the same as what I got here. Thanks for your reply.
