Wheel Directory: Sparco Terra 16x7.0 +50
 

Hi all!
Winter is still going strong in the NE so I just recently fit this winter set of wheels; purchased from Tire Rack as a wheel and tire package. Tires are Bridgestone Blizzak WS70 205/55-16. Car is all stock.

Need some big mudflap to finish the rally look :)

Nice winter wheels!

This looks pretty good!

Nice wheels

i like those wheels

You know, with more tire and less wheel, the wheel gap people complain about is a lot less of an eyesore. But then again, as somebody else mentioned, I guess it has that "rally" look. Which is one of the things I'm a fan of.

Thanks for posting this! I like the look of that wheel/tire ratio...well done!

I'm going to buy these, just in 17's.

awesome! i'm glad they're being received well! they make me feel a lot better about my fender gap haha :thumbsup:
relatively inexpensive too at approx. $130 a wheel for the 16" version. I think the 17" is sub $150 each.
they also sell in gold and white :thumbup:

Those look fantastic, these might have to replace my steelies next year...

Looks awesome! I am jealous.

My Terras wrapped in Blizzaks came in this week from tire rack. I'm going to install them tomorrow morning before the F1 race. Just curious, does anyone know why they don't come with centering rings? I was struggling to find the hub bore for these wheels online, but I would be surprised if it was an exact match with the BRZ (56.1 I believe).

edit- made new entry for the Wheel Directory for 17x7.5.

I was about to buy the 16x7s and reuse my old snows, but a friend just sold his WRX and had a set of 17x7.5 Terras, gray, with Dunlop Wintersport 4Ds with a couple seasons on them. I love the look!

And a link to there just in case since it's easier for me to paste it here and you not need than you have to go find! (it's the WRX page as they're swappable, and was easier to find the 16's link there) http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Wheel...All&sort=Brand

very nice combo guys. it gives that rally look

Tire: BRIDGESTONE BLIZZAK WS80

Wheels: Spraco Terra

I'd love some better shots of that, thinking of going silver or gunmetal myself.

Has any one managed to fit these over a BBK? Based on my measurements with a template, they should fit the Essex/AP Sprint BBK, but I'm curious to know if anybody has real world experience.

How bad do these things look when they are dirty?

I mean--there is dirty that still looks rugged cool, and dirty that just looks like you don't give a shit kind of awful.

What are you subjective impressions?

Honestly I thought they looked pretty cool even when slightly dirty. Here are a couple of pics from that winter. They never looked bad or gross. At worst, they looked a little gray in the throws of winter, but never looked bad imo. Also it probably helped that I prepped them with wheel wax before the winter so the crud came off pretty easy.

Nice rally look!

:party0030:

How far do the wheels sit inside the fender? Do you think is possible to go up to the +35 they offer?

Mounted up my Terra's with Blizzak's today as it's getting too cold for summer tires already, and snapped a few pics.

So has anyone tried the 35mm offset with these? (Sparco Terra 16")

Different wheel, but i have 16x7 +35. They fit really well.

I was gonna start a thread, but I can hopefully piggy back off this one, but just asking, 16's will fit nicely on the FR-S? I was thinking of selling my stock 17's for a set of 16x7 or 16x8's. If someone could let me know that they will fit. Thanks and I love the BRZ

With stock brakes, many 16" do, over PP brembos probably won't fit. And some even like looks change with smaller wheels. Obviously with lower diameter wheel but higher tire profile height ride will be more compliant/comfortable (and better wheels protection on bad roads & noticeably smaller tire cost), but steering sharpness will suffer, as more sidewall flex that will provide comfort will rob from handling.
Check initial posts of wheel directory to see many 16" wheels that fit. Choose one to your liking. I wouldn't sell stockers though. My preference is - 16" for winter & 17" for summer.

^^^I agree only do 16s for winter or rally/off-road. No experience with 16s on a BRZ, but I can tell you upgrading to 17s on my 04 WRX was a great improvement, and it was not just the tire as both were all seasons.
