not sure if you've ever checked yahoo, but 2k will get you 8j + 9j A type set of mk3s with room left over for some very nice tyres.
you'd have 2 very nice sets of ssrs if you wanted the sizes you currently have, 8j Bs(+/-0) are relatively cheap, and 17s look hideous on these, donk spec.
Supporting rota for price factor alone is not an excuse in my books, support genuine especially when you've gone to the effort of a respray and trust headers.
