holy crap that's huge. Not a fan to be honest. You better get some crazy good looking rims to fill those though. So far the choices posted in this thread are "ok" for the most part. A few were downright ugly. Nothing was epic enough. I say you keep looking for some EPIC rims

Thats what I'm saying....I need help finding suitable (and affordable) wheels to fill these monsters!

I must admit that they are larger than I thought they would be...they look goofy right now, but I know once I get the correct wheels on there it'll look mean.

The spinwerks Series 82 16x9.5 0et (~$250 per rim / ~15lbs)...so far, but I'm definitly not dead set on them by any means...

Hard to tell what wheels these are exactly (I believe Kodiaks $$$) but they look pretty good...

It happens. I was the only flared NA around here for a while, now they're coming out of the woodwork, which is why I'm going to get the N2s, no one has those around here yet. Of course, wonton is a good friend and he'll have them too. Oh well... lol

Very good condition. 16x9.5", with 4x114.3 bolt pattern (for 12x1.5 studs), zero offset (5.25" backspace), has centering rings (aluminum) for cars with 60.1mm hub, center bore of wheels is 66mm. They are 14.8 to 15 lbs each, light and strong, spun aluminum. No dents, rash, some very small chips.(pinhead size). Polished aluminum (no clearcoat)."
