16" BBS RS wheels I thought about buying recently. I probably won't be able to get them, though. BTW, this SC3 is lowered 1" with Eibach Pro Kit springs.

16" on a SC = Horrific.

While I pref the BBS RSs shown above I happen to have a set of ACTs on mine.






I can understand why people are drawn towards 17''+ wheels though I still recieve lots of compliments with a 16''.

Those BBS RS replicas don't look that bad. It looks like a pretty accurate RS replica. I can't tell if they also have polished lips or not, though. The polished lips are the main reason I like the BBS RS and LM wheels.

300ZX Twin Turbo wheels, 16x7.5 in the front and 8.5 in the rear. Fit flush. Definitely needs a bigger tire in the back though.
