Help me out- post pics of your 16" wheels!

I know, there have been a million posts about wheels (not a bad thing). I have seen everything I want to see in 17" sizes, but not much in 16". I know I have seen some 16" ROH Snypers and ZS's but cannot find them and yes I did a search. I would post one to start it out if I could find it, but no luck. So please- post pics of your 16" wheels, specifically ROH and other aftermarket ones. Thank you!

Those are awsome Zeph, some of my favorites if I could ever find a set like that. Here are some TT2's I found in 16". Anyone have more like these? Think these look decent on our cars? I'm still trying to find some ROH's for opinions.

At least if anyone wants to do this search in the future they can find a lot in one place.

grngry- those rims are beautiful. Did you polish them yourself? I always wonder what those would look like on a Firebird or T/A, I've only seen a few with IROC's on.

1tin- I'll take those polished TA wheels off your hands if you get TT2's. They look awsome!

Carlover- I don't drive it as much as I used to. It hasn't been a daily driver now for a couple of years. I actually work in DePere and in the summer will take it to work once or twice a week if it's nice out, but not too much around town. My goal someday is to get it into car shows (LOTS of work to be done first). We should get all the Appleton/Kaukauna/Green Bay people together sometime for fun.

You scored them for free?? How did you manage that? I love em. Do you have any better pics of them? I think I remember a blue Camaro in a CHP article that had those, they look great! I am thinking 16's will look fine.

Hey Deadbird, I am looking at doing the high rise on my Firebird as well. Do you have any other pictures of it like that? I think it looks awsome.
