Aftermarket wheels in Calgary

Well, I get my Fr-s sometime in the middle of January it looks like and I would like to get some winter tires and possibly look into buying some aftermarket rims a slightly increasing the width of the tires to 225. Now I was looking on 1010tires.com and seems to have a great selection and alot less than I figured. I am unfamiliar with a good place to buy wheels and tires in Calgary. If anyone has any recommendations that would be great. Also, can someone explain offset, is that how far the tire sticks out of the wheel well?

You could try the Wheel Pro's on Edmonton Trail. Depends on what you are looking for?

Im looking for a place with a wide variety of brand name aftermarket wheels to choose from. For winter I will just get steelies and keep my stock rims and rubber and hang on to them.

I recommend Pro Tire http://www.protirecalgary.com/, they're careful and know what they're doing.
