Strange Request: Does anyone have a set of wheels I could borrow for a couple weeks?

I'm buying a set of wheels and my stock 18's are part of the deal. I have to ship my wheels first and they're my only set so I'm not going to have any wheels for at least a week. That is, unless someone would be kind enough to let me borrow an extra set of wheels for 2 weeks! I wouldn't be driving much (if at all) but I don't have 4 jack stands and I'd like the option of being able to drive the car if I HAVE to. I'm fine with 17's or your OEM wheels...I'll take anything that'll fit!

I'll compensate anyone who helps me out with whatever you think is fair. Also, I can give you a deposit or something so you know I won't just take off with your wheels or something if you'd like. Let me know if you can help me out!

I could do a mini road trip to Louisville one weekend, unless you're planning to come to Columbus anytime soon, Chris...

215 is a tire size..... the 17 is the rim size...but a 215 tire can most likely be used instead of a 225....

17 is the diameter of the wheel, i'm talking about the width of the wheel.

The rim is 215mm wide, can a 225mm wide tire go on it?
