It might be possible to get D90's with adaptors & tyres for £400 - £450.

A cheaper alternative might be 17" Audi TT 6 spoke alloys with 205/40x17 tyres.

I paid 350 for my d90's, 5x 8x16's with 195-45-16's and adapters. They sell for more now though.

Anything from et30-et40 should be fine

205/40/17, 195/40/17 or 185/35/17 are all great tyre choices

Depends on the width of the wheels I guess
