Had some fun with Photoshop today. As you might have guessed, I'm not a professional editor...

I must ask, how does it feel on the road? probably a light and agile mixed with increased comfort and quieter ride eh?

they are only a couple lbs lighter than the stock 16s, but they do seem to feel a little better, who knows if its my imagination or not. the v12s have a pretty soft sidewall so alot of stuff gets filtere out i would imagine.

where did you find those? every sa-15r in 16" i could find has a disclaimer saying that 16" wheels only have 12 spokes, due to the smaller size.

Update, nevermind i see the spec sheet that has 15 spoke 16s. weird, all i could ever find was the 12 spoke over here.

I lost approximately 5lbs per wheel including the new tire. The new tire weighs 21lbs according to Continental. My scale it weighed a few ounces less. The wheels weighs about 14.8lbs. I actually weighed my car about a month ago with a full tank. And I mean I filled up the tank a mile away from the scale. I did the same thing with the new tires/wheels. I now weigh on that scale fully loaded with spare and all with an Automatic at 2780. It steers smoother, rides smoother, looks better (subjective opinion) and handles better. I am happy with it! Not the best handling car, or the best looking FR-S but I think it is a little better than the stock. This is my daily driver so I couldn't be to aggressive. Anyways this mod worked for me. I drove the car daily with the stock tires for about 14 months and for well over 11k miles. This is a noticeable improvement.

I like that wheel setup! Thanks for the post. I was wondering what wheel width and the tire size you are running?
