They are 16x7.
They will be for spirited street use, with maybe a couple of track days in a year.
My problem is not enough traction with the stock 195/50/15 tires.
There is no way I can get 225/45/15s where I live, so 16s are the best I can do, size-wise.
Also, I had a bad accident a while back, and the stock wheels had to be straightened. I am not very comfortable with that, either.

Last I checked shipping a single wheel (minus tire) costs anywhere between $90 for a real slow boat deal to $327 for USPS priority Between the US and Istanbul, Turkey.
You spring for shipping, I'll just drop the wheels in the mail..
