Hey guys
Just stumbled upon this site.
I'm looking for nice wide 16'' rims....looking in the range of 8''x16'' or 9''x16''.
I've found several rims that I like in 16'' and 17'' but the width is always 7'' or 7,5'' and I'm not fond of the skinny look.
Can you guys help me out?
My lug nut pattern is 4/100.
Thanks
Patrick

You need to identify your car.
Also, you might research the following...
1. find out what offset is needed/wanted?
2. do you have hubcentric rims?
3. what is the diameter of your stock tires?
4. is weight important to you?
With the above info, you will be miles ahead. And get better answers.

Offset doesn't matter.
If it's too low I'll refit my wheelswells.
If it's too high->wheel spacers
Why does diameter of stock rims matter?
I just want 16''... know that.
And yes..weight is very important.
I've been looking at the volk te37.
And if I tell you what car I have, you won't be familiar with it.
It's European.

If you re-read the original post, it said diameter of your tires, not your rims. These items were mentioned for the benefit of any of the other visitors that might read these posts, as well as a helpful reminder of important info for you. However, since your "automotive philosophy" is so different from mine, I don't think I can help you any further.

thats what i would do
