16" wheels

I'm looking for a nice light weight set of 16's. I already know about the Rota Slipstreams, I like the look and the weight, but are there any other options? I've tried searching all over but it seem there are barely any any places that offer below a 17".

for some reason 16's dont have many lightweight options. but if your willing to goto 15's there are many available.

I think 15's are kinda small but 17's are kinda big. 16 seems just right. Maybe i'll just get some gunmetal slipstreams. Thanx though.

i have a set of 16" wheels. they are not a big brand, but they are pretty light (same weight as my old 15's). I didn't actually weigh them to see what they weigh with the tire on, but i like them. I am an authorized dealer for them, and can hook you up if you want. Email me at josh@zerodragtuning.com and I'll send you pics. I'll be swapping them over to my CRX this week, so I'll weigh one and let you know what it weighs.

a good thing to note is this...

just b/c you dont see the size you want listed in the advertisements, like the tire rack...doesnt necessarily mean that they dont have that style wheel in 16". Usually the sizes they list are the ones that come in wheel/tire packages, or are the more popular size.

if you see something you like..make some calls.

also...if you see a wheel you like, garunteed there are 3 other companies with an exact copy of that wheel..maybe even in different sizes and finishes.

good luck :biggrin:
