how would the kaminari kit look with my 16' rims....to me i would think it would be kinda off due to the size of my rims... but who knows....also would it be lower on the front end vs my front rs1 lip?. feedback greatly appreaciated... fyi. i will be upgrading my wheels to 17 in the near future...

 

it wouldn't look right with 16" wheels

 

i dunno 16" are just too small

 

16 wouldnt look right on stock bumpers. Not only that if you had 16" rims w/ lowering springs and Kaminari. you'd have constant dragging.

IF you didnt have springs it would look weird.

 

Kami kit would probably not look good on 17s even....18s with 35 or 40 offset in 8-8.5 rim..........

 

when i think about it.....i would have to say that i will agree with BZ

 

Yeah it is a big kit that really enhances the wheel wells.......big rims that are in the 18 x 8 range with big offset will look great......otherwise it is just like it is half finished.........

The nose alone on the kit makes wheel look small.......as it is so low.......

 

i have 16's on my tc right now....they dont look bad at all... they look fine on h-techs.... i drove my friends tc on 17s compared to mine i think my tc is alittle quicker...

 

I am wondering why you went from stock 17's and down graded to 16's? Are you drag racing? Do you rally or something? I mean did you have them laying around from a previous vehicle? Or did you actually go out and buy 16in rims, and new tires? I am not trying to be mean I would like to know. I am a stickler about small rims and think it not only kills the look of a car, but unless you have 450+ Hp it wouldnt really make a diff.

 

there is actually a performance increase when it comes to smaller rims. they weight less, 20 pounds for stock rims to 17 pounds for 16s, and the have less rotating mass. Finally this is my opinion, but I think they look better with a small coupe like the tC.

i would be interested in those 16's...

 

and then you will be dragging the front.

 

40 lbs!?! WTF

 

I spent some time looking for these pics online please enjoy!

 

you wasted your time iKona, those are factory 17" wheels when he has 16".

 

I meant 20 pounds, and yeah having a body kit with 16s would look funny
