Winter Rims and Tires -- Good deal?

I just put together a decent package that breaks down as follows:

4 x FRD Racing 128 (Silver) Wheels (45mm Offset), 17" x 7" x 114.3 = $597.80 (with shipping)
4 x Hankook W300 Ice Bear 205/50/17 OR 225/50/17 tyres = $597.91 (with shipping)

+ $83.70 (tax)

TOTAL: $1279.41 including shipping mounting and balancing.

Good deal? And if so, would you go for the 225's or the 205's? I'm personally thinking the 205's as narrower tyres are better in the snow as a rule.

Thanks for your advice!

I think that's an alright deal. Seems awfully familiar ... Tiretrends.com?? In the end I paid about that much ... for Hankooks (225) and CoreRacing rims from my dealer and had them install it.

I think most fellows went with the 215's and settle for the 225. I'm not sure if 205's fit. Look in the recent Winter Tires thread for more prices and comparisons (even pics).
