i am looking at 16x7 tsw kyalamis for my ix.

they are similar to the Hockenheim R. here's my car back in the day with those wheels:


but like all TSW wheels, they are heavy and soft. They wouldn't be my first choice, but they aren't the worst looking wheels ever.

btw I hope your car is lowered. I got away with it because my offset was ET20 on a 7.5" wheel. plus the car already had those wheels when I bought it :P

thanks nando..

yes my car is lowered now. i got the H&Rs with konis all around. i like the ride and the ride height, currently running with bottlecaps.

how did this set up (the one in the picture above) compare to the one you are running now? as in factory suspension with bigger rims vs lowered and 15" weaves?

If you like those, you may also want to check out the Rage Coda and Euro. I think both look pretty good. Don't know anything about the quality though. This place sells both. http://www.wickedbodies.net/Rage-Wheels.htm If they aren't too heavy and of a cheap quality, I will probalby highly consider the euro in 16x7.

thanks Jrowe.

at the end of the day, they are all BBS wannabes. ideally i would like to buy a set of 17" RXs or RSs..

I like my car much better with 15" wheels. the TSWs were okay, but I traded them to a buddy for a set of bottlecaps.

it took me a long time to figure out what wheels I liked on the car, I ended up deciding that basketweaves look the best (to me). just wish there was something in 16x7.5" for our cars..

here's some recent pics of my car with 15x7" bbs (ET24 "euro" weaves)
