Other 16" wheels than stock

Do anybody have changed their stock 16" for any other aftermarket 16" s. I know 17" would be and upgrade but just for couriosity will like to see how our car looks with other 16" wheels. I think that the ballon look inside the wheel (the rise part on the wheel between the spokes) makes the wheel look smaller in diameter imo. Any pictures ?

I just got around to installing these yesterday. Pictures are not the best due to weather conditions. Hopefully if the weather is good tomorrow I'll have better pictures.

A good benchmark I like to use for a good light weight wheel would be

15in = 5kg

16in = 6kg

17in = 7kg

I think you guys go by pounds?....if that is, I think you have to divide by 2 or is it 2.5?

Nice dude!!! I love those Grams!!! When you get a chance, please post a pic of a full profile body shot.

Somebody asked about wheel weights... most of these on the lists weight around or under 15lbs. I know the Buddy Clubs are like 11lbs!!! I think the Enkei and Advans are 14lbs.

I got today 4 EAGLES F1 205-50-16 , so i'll stick with the 16" size for a while . the size its perfect for the PRs roads not so hard rides like the 17s.

Hey boys all of you did great on this search and got really nice rims . now the hard job: to decide wich one i like the most for my ride !!!

adam I like your car looks great!
