Sorry, I did not try any on my car. To be honest I was trying to do this cheaply. I had a set of 205/55's laying around that we had taken off a Galant VR-4 years ago after they scrubbed badly in Solo II competitions. I just painted my entire car with a pearl over the stock Saab white so my car fund was a bit on the wimpy side ;-)
The rim I really like is the Optima Max type 82. They make it in the right bolt pattern but the offset is 38mm 17 X 7. With the extra 2mm more interference over the 30mm 7.5" rims it would have been really close. You guys with the newer 9K's should fit fine.
Of course you can always have something custom built. I looked into a set of custom Volk TE-37's a few years ago for my Mitsubishi in a 17 X 9 and 17 X 8. The 17 X 8 was $535 + $250 for chrome each. Ouch. Nice forged rim though. Salesco will custom drill any rim for an extra $60 a rim. I'll get a pic up of the ones I am putting on my car, they are nothing special but for $400 out the door I can't complain.
