Any particular style wheel you're looking for?
I can do these for $137.50 each,
These are $119.90 each,
These are $99.00 each,
And these are $110.00 each,
Tires are extra of course but you'd have to tell me what tires you're interested in, I can usually do fairly well with tire pricing.
Welcome to the site by the way

Shipping depends on where you are, I'm just North of the Twin cities.
As for tires? The best size to run is a 215-45-17 if you want to maintain a decent ride without throwing off your speedo too much.
I've found the "Tire rack" website is a great place to research tires, you can pull them up by size and driving style i.e. All season, ultra high performance, basic passenger car tire, etc.
I would assume you'll be keeping the 16's for winter use?

Here at the household we are now looking for used...
Bought some wheels for the truck last year for 2200... just sold them for 1350.. they were black 22's...
So I think I can get something for 350-400... so Im on the look... cash is waiting... well for now.. but the more I wait it slowly goes away...
So Im looking for something in the 350-400 price range...

I have 225x40x18's for sale for $450. I have a fairly serious person considering them at the moment (tgnorman)...if he doesn't want them, you can make me an offer.
See my posting on FS My rims and tires.

You could have them painted black for about $150 for all four.
If tgnorman doesn't buy them, they might be a good fit for you.

Want my old 17s? Tires are shot, but the wheels are still decent.
I do need some winter wheels, though....

What are they?
Speaking of winter wheels....I want to put out there that I possibly trade my wheels... 09 Snowflakes 16" 's for the right set of wheels... plus cash...
ASA's in 18's

possible...

I think CleanZX3 had a set of these for sale last year, might want to check with him to see if they're still for sale.

I haven't posted any ads for the wheels. They're the standard '04 SVT 6-spokes in decent shape (no bends, one ding on one of the wheels, but I need to finish polishing them.) Tires are toast, though.
I might be interested in swaps for some 16s, but I'm still undecided.
