Default 16" Rota Slipstreams on a tC!

Hey guys...Lately I've been trying to distinguish if I would really wanna go for these set of rims for my Classic Silver 06 tC. The car has been installed with a 1.5" drop Eibach springs, exhaust, tints, TYC taillights, fog lights, and some other cosmetic stuff. I was thinking that this would be a good step for a performance upgrade, since the rims only weigh about 14 lbs. each. My only concern is that I don't know if it would look right with my car! Never really tried to put them in yet!

My friend is selling these to me with the whole set of Falken drag tires (215 45 ZR16), everything would be sold for about $400. Another concern that brought to my mind was how it would affect the speedometer, since the rim size is smaller, and how it would affect the tire pressure sensor for this 06 tC model. All of the rims are colored black, kinda looks like the Spoon style rims used for the Civics or the Integras. Again, I would like to know if anyone has done something like this!

Should I go for another set of tires probably a 225 55 R16 or 225 45 R16?


HELP! NEED ANSWER!
