Default WTB: 17" BBS wheels to fit 1898 Turbo

Just wondering if anyone knows anyone selling 17" BBS wheels (any style) that would fit a late model 944 Turbo. I'm due to change up the stock 16" wheels, and I'm leaning toward a BBS race-style variant wheel. I'm in Canada, so I assume that'll create a headache for shipping, but any help would be great.

I draw the line at concrete. Normally I wouldn't post something like this, but it's slim pickings around the net so I figured someone here might know of something.

standard 1898 wheel. Might have clearance issues....

(There's always some kind of wheel for sale on these boards, and ebay usually has several sets of BBS laying around)

Ebay is looking pretty slim right now, which is why I'm posting here. I'm sort of desperate to find some new wheels in the near future. I hit a pot hole and did a number one of my rear wheels, so it's kind of pushing me to find some replacements soon, after which I can refinish and sell the 16s (which I had planned to replace at some point anyway). I'll keep an eye out on Ebay though, thanks. I'm also open to 17" Cup 2 wheels...

Can you provide me with some details? I'll certainly register/pay to be a "rennlist member," but I don't have any money in my PayPal right now (i.e. at 11:43 PM). That can be fixed tomorrow, though.
