    16's???

    so i know this is more a "its what you want to do with your car" kind of question but i want to know the opinions of others..

    so i saw a post on craigslist where a guy is selling a set of no name black 6 star rims that are 16 and also some oem cd5 rims without centers for 100 each set.

    so my question is would 16s look good on cb7's are they too big? How would they effect my ride and height, i have lowered my car on non adjustable springs, not sure specific height of them because i got them from a friend. anything helps thanks?

    is there anyone on here that can photoshop the rims on my car if i upload some pic of my ride and car?

    haha whats up and welcome to the game. 16s are the best of both worlds between the 15 and 17. drop your car and the 16s will look mean on the CB

      Anything bigger than 14 looks good.

      15-20" = ideal

      You can't go wrong with 16s at all. I've got 18s on the car in my sig.

        My personal opinion is that these cars need atleast a 16"-17" wheel. I'm currently dailying on 15 and I think they need to move up. Mind you, I look at it from more of a performance aspect, but for the strip, I will be running 14s.

        Crazymikey - I wasn't aware falken made the hanabis in an 18". I thought only 17s in the +20 or +40~ offset area. I must say they do look great on your car, what is the width and offset on those if you don't mind me asking?

        Cb7freak91 - if you decide to not get the wheels, would you mind sharing the craigslist link with us?

          16s are perfect in my eyes. just gotta make sure you have a drop to make them look good tho. heres a couple pics of my 16s. running 205/55s on the 1st set and 195/50s on the 2nd. just so you know, dont do more than 55 series for the tires or it'll look like crap.

          16x7s i think


          16x7.5s. +33 offset

            I agree with shadow, I'm running 205/55 on my 15s and 50 series would've been nicer. The tire roll is really what's killing it for me though. 205/55 on a 5.5 inch wide wheel = no bueno.

            Shadow1 - car looks great, what headlights are those?

              yeah. if you have a 16" wheel, no more than a 55 series. but it depends on low you plan on going. let us know and we can help you more. we need more help on the specs. width and offset(not really the offset but would be nice. lol).

              91H22ACB7-they're OEM headlights. just blackhoused.

                No idea on any specs on the wheels. I bought them used off some guy who had them on a 94 Prelude. They fit nicely for sure, however they had 215/35/18 rubber, which IMO, wasn't quite enough meat for me. I probably would have gone with a 215 or 225/40/18 at the minimum.

                      205/50r16 it almost the same diameter as a factor 195/60r15 wheel this won't change your speedometer that much You can use this site to play with some tire size.
