what do you guys think about 16'' inch rims for my car? my stock is 15 because i got the 4 cyl.
17''s look nice but acceleration is sacrificed and ride comfort.
and i don't want to be too high off the ground...

does anyone here have aftermarket 16'' inch wheels on there car with pics?

our cars are huge, 16's look even smaller, especially aftermarket 16's, at times even 17's look small.

I saw a 6th gen rolling around with 20's and a drop this weekend..... looked good, but having rubber bands around my wheels would make me too nervous. I'd go with a set of 17's cause it's a good balance between looks and comfort (if that's a concern).

16" = too small imo
17" = looks good, and better performance-wise
18" = mostly for looks, but best size imo
19" and over = balla status :D
