Before you get 17's, check out this thread, it informs you of what size rims you can/can't have on your car.

As for the lowered price, no idea, sorry.

springs will cost you about $240 for all 4, plus $60 labour. But highly advisable upgrading shocks as stock ones wont last long. These will be just over $400 for all 4, plus mmaybe another $40 labour if you get it all done at once.

yep i would go 17s for sure.
i have 18s on my TR and i would not recomend it to anyone.
i get flats all the time ,,when i need a tyre it costs a small fortune,,and that is often,,
go the 17s

remember when you lower it make sure your shocks are in good condition or else it'll bounce and behave like a *****. Look at the Arospeed RS-GT rims, they're awesome and come in 17X7.. ozzy tyres sell them, pretty cheap, $1500 17" with tyres.

Hey guys, just wondering if 18" wheels with a 5/114 mm offset will go on a '91 TR Magna, 2.6 smoooothly? Like without having to do any major changes. they came off a '93 verada/magna, apparently. Cheers guys.

how wide are they?
5x114.3 is the stud pattern not the offset.
my car has 18x8s with 235s and it had to have the rear gaurds pumpt and rolled so it wouldnt scrub and it still scrubs with a couple of people it the back when i hit big bumps in the road.

Yep these'll fit. Any wheels that'll fit a 2nd or 3rd gen without alterations will fit onto your car
