Not really. As you can see, this is my DD wheel. Don't want to spend too much. Wife is also getting impatient. She wants a new SUV for her. The request is not unreasonable because our current SUV is getting old. Cannot sell the old SUV either b/c it is reserved for daughter. So I might sell BRZ in near future. Don't want to put too much money now. |

Shouldn't 5mm spacer be closer to OE specs? Any link for such spacers and lug bolts? This is getting more complicated. If I simply ignore the offset difference, what is the negative consequence? Wrong alignment? bad handling? Man, I really want those Australian OE 16 inch wheels. |

If you want cheaper than rpf1, i like enkei ekm3. $165 a wheel in 17x7. It's a bbs LM knockoff. Ekm3 are my winters. 18x8 for summer.

Cost, weight, ride quality, and aesthetics were my priorities. I went with the Konig Oversteer in 16" x 7.5" They're not crazy light or glamorous but I still like them.

These seem like the best value out there for 16's...lighter than OEM, perfect width for a 225/50 tire, good looking, and affordable.
