PrimeRib Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 No one bought my OEM tires. In the interest of my wallet, I am going with 16s instead of upgrading to 17s. The stock wheels are for my winter setup. My car is white satin pearl. I like bronze wheels on white, but I am not sure about this shade of bronze. #1 http://www.tirerack.com/images/wheels/kazera/swap/kazera_kzi_blk_ci3_l.jpg #2 http://www.tirerack.com/images/wheels/kazera/swap/kazera_kzi_b_ci3_l.jpg #3 http://www.tirerack.com/images/wheels/kazera/swap/kazera_kzp_b_ci3_l.jpg #4 http://www.tirerack.com/images/wheels/kazera/swap/kazera_kzp_blk_ci3_l.jpg I researched this brand online and can't find one negative review. They are 1pc. low pressure cast, which is a step up from gravity casting. They are also light weight. I don't care about the weight since I'm not running a performance machine, but it was good to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowsports Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Am I wrong to ask why mag wheels for winter tires? But I'd go black since you have a white car. I'd also go with a 17 in tire. Just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrimeRib Posted February 3, 2013 Author Share Posted February 3, 2013 I'm using the stock wheels for my winter set up. They are on the car now. I'm leaning toward #1. I just like that style. This shade of bronze might be too dull with the white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drift Motion Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 16" aftermarket wheel on a 5th gen? erghhh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrimeRib Posted February 4, 2013 Author Share Posted February 4, 2013 16" aftermarket wheel on a 5th gen? erghhh Don' feel like having to spring for new tires when the ones I have only have 16k on them. If I had sold the Turanzas I would have upgraded. Would it have been ok if I had owned a 4th gen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drift Motion Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 only if you had a non gt 4th gen... aftermarket 16" wheels on a 5th gen will make it look very disproportional you'll probably think it's okay, but once you have them on there...you might think otherwise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrimeRib Posted February 5, 2013 Author Share Posted February 5, 2013 Looks ok now with 16s on it. How would aftermarket 16s look disproprtionate over thestock 16s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JermTheElf Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Why not look for a used set of wheels with tires? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrimeRib Posted February 6, 2013 Author Share Posted February 6, 2013 Then I still have an extra set of tires to get rid of or store ad infinitum. Not a bad idea though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Giovo Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Go to Discount Tire and use the option of looking at your car with your color of white. Choose rims with the color choices you have and pick the one you like best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
