I picked up the four wheels from the Buy/Sell forum here, $175 for all four, with four worn out Blizzaks.
Added four new Blizzaks, tried to add the TPMS but they won't fit in these wheels.
Anyway, I am very happy with the result.
Went to the dealer today for an oil change and asked if they could turn off the TPMS. He suggested electrical tape over the two warning lights, which is exactly what I have done.
Note the original wheel/tire was 235-60-17 and these are 235-65-16. I read that these are basically the same diameter and that there would be no speedometer issues. I haven't timed anything against the mileage markers on the highway yet.
