I run 215/55-16s on 16x7s with 4" bs. You won't have any issues as long as you stay around 26" height.

Good looking wheels.
16 will work well IMO.
A deeper dish (if available) would be the icing on the cake

Nice job, Waffles! Now that I can see them on the car, they look great.

I agree Fake, even though Im the one that foound them, I wasn't sold either. The pics really helped.

Im a little confused though, b/c I think they look killer with the primer and the black stripes (if something CAN look killer in primer ) , but I dont like them as much on the green mock up.

Thanks for the quick photoshop work, Waffles.

If I were to use this newer style wheel look, I would definitely go with 16 or 17 inch or else I think the rim to tire ratio looks odd. (new look rim, old look tire).
