Just brainstorming on 16-in wheel/tire setups. After a bit of research I found these wheels. any mistakes you find please correct:
Rota slipstream 16x7 + 40, under 17 lbs
Enkei RPF1 16x7 +35, 13.7 lb
Team Dynamics Pro Race 1
OZ Ultralegerra, 14.8 lb
XXR 002 16x8
Motegi Traklite 16x7 +40, i forget the weight...i'm sure under 15 lbs
Konig Forward (white/pink, and black/red)
Konig Britelite 16x7 +40, 15.3 lb
Unfortunately I could not find all the info for offset and weights. I try to find the lightest wheels possible for performance's sake.
205/55/16 tires (-1.33% odometer):
toyo proxes 4, 20 lb
ziex 512, 21 lb
toyo t1r, 21.9 lb

215/55/16 (+.39% odometer):
Conti DW, 21 lb
ziex 512, 21 lb
Proxes 4, 22.1 lb

I ran ultralagerras for a long time, loved them. 16x7 +35 with 205/55's
I ran the dunlop 8000's , which turned out to be an excellent tire for the price (sixty-something a piece)
id recommend them or RPF 1's over the others

OMG that look is the sheeeyet(!). Yes i have those OZ wheels and RPF1s on my list on the "baller status budget". the most expensive ones on my short list are MOtegi Traklite at $300+ a piece :icon_frown:
i don't know how you or anyone can run 15s since there is no tire ratio that makes sense...they're either way off %-wise or no tires are available for the ones with closer ratios. :eyes: Because otherwise i'd rock something like high performance 205/50/15. 15s are usually cheaper and lighter than bigger tires also = HUGE performance benefits.

I ran 15's with a 225/50/15 tire, it was actually really nice fit. i think if i wouldnt have had problems with getting the rear low enough , i would have kept them. i just cant get the ksport rears low enough to my liking and it looked bad on 15s

I plan on running 16's as well since it looks so good with a big drop. FYI 235/50/16 is very close to our OE tire size too.
