Wheel Directory? Volk Racing C-Ultra 16x7
Got my wheels installed! Volk Racing C-Ultra 16x7. Pretty obese at 17.0 pounds apiece (34.5 with tires). The info sticker on the back was full of crap and wouln't tell me the offset, but I measured it at roughly 60-61 offset. Wearing 205/55R16 Hankook Ventus V12 Evo on front and Evo2 on the rear.
They technically went on the car without spacers, but there was 1mm clearance between the front sidewall and spring perch so it wasn't driveable unless you like blowouts. This is with 20mm spacers front and rear. The fitment looks more conservative in photos than in real life, but there's no mistaking that these are small wheels. Don't know how the Wheel Directory is supposed to work, but um, here's how they look?       Seriously, 5x114.3 +34?

the spacing between the bolt pattern does look like 5x114.3. it doesnt look like +14 offset though when looking at the pics with them on your car (+34 and +20mm spacers)... i was thinking maybe you got the wheels with 20mm adapters

Wow.
Props for being different. And for going with 16's. Will you be painting them? Or swapping out your factory side-markers? Those two shades of orange are a bit...clashy. But I'm the guy who will wear red socks with brown shoes, so take what I say with a grain of salt... Very retro. I kinda like them. :-)
