How do our cars look with these rims. I searched and couldn't find anything. My buddy is selling a set for 300 and i was wondering do these fit our cars. The 16x8 with spacers. I have spacers so im just looking for rims now. Any pics or suggestions would be nice. Thanks!

I am not sure which rims you are refering to as all 4th gens had ABS that I know of and there are a bunch of 16x8 styles. Imho I wouldn't pay 300 for just the rims, only if they had a great set of tires on them.

i have the chrome 16x8's on my car and they look great imo. especially compared to stockers.. ill post up some pics in the next couple of days.

This is a pick of the 4th gen. rims that i got painted bronze with 2" adaptersbehind them. I got them for $30 from a friend with 2 bad tires.

heres the pics i promised.. btw, i paid $80 for all 4 wheels w/ bald tires on them, but had some chrome peeling on backside of rims where you cant see. i have more pics if u need from diff. angles etc..

used 2" spacers with 245/50/16 tires all around. they work great w/ no rubbing issues.

Looks good Red92, but they look a bit too small for my taste. I've seen the WS6 wheels which are the same design only 17" and those look B/A.

Nice car!

I'm a fan.

In general, I dislike using spacers on my car. I want a wheel made for it, you know? I don't have to worry about the wheel rubbing the wheel well and keeping the front wheels tight isn't ever an issue.

i agree with both of you, i would have rather had 17's , but at this point in life (being 18) i couldnt pass up a deal on a nice looking set of rims for cheap. i think its a nice upgrade from stock. new tt2's or ws6's are a little spendy. eventually ill upgrade but these will do for now. havent had any trouble with my spacer's either.

the next thing i buy will probably be a set of sportline springs to lower it down a bit. it will make the wheels look better i think.

Yeah, lowering will definetly make the wheels look better. And I hear you about the money issue.

those 16's look pretty good! I have the 17's, and to be honest, I dont think its that obvious the size difference.

I have those wheels on my new 95 T/A. I hate them though...

Just saw this one on cardomain and made me think of this thread.
To me the size difference in obvious. To those who don't know their not the same wheel they'd never know.
