    I ordered some custom made 210/46/16s because I roll like that!

    Yeah, her car needs that much tire to kind of downplay the chrome Momo wheels.

    205/40/16 is WAY too small.

    My wifes car is running a 225/50/16, it looks great.

    You could buy my 16 x 7 SSR comps with 225/45/16 Kumho SPT's. Look very good, strong lightweight wheels, few people have them because they are too cheap to spend the money for them.

    I have something a bit tastier on the way.

    Those wheels you posted would be perfect for autocrossing.
    i was thinking about buying them just for that reason. i have yet to autocross my car yet though, or any car for that matter... i am looking forward to it.

    ok, i am slowly getting turned away from sportmaxx...but you cant beet the price. what are some other good wheel options? i would like to have a dish wheel.

    i've only seen 15" 002's on jeremiel5's car. The fit quite nicely. Those wheels you posted would be perfect for autocrossing.

    a ton of fender rolling is needed for sportmaxx 02's. Esepcialy lowered. But its worth it even though they are kinda trendy/gay.lol.

    Get 16's and swerve like mad to keep your wheels true ;)

    Personally i'm not a big fan of rota's, I almost bought a set of helium's for my old crx then I ran across a thread on honda-tech about a guy who cracked the spokes tracking them.

    Quick search found this, mind you these wheels WERE powder coated which the baking process does weaken the cast aluminum keep that in mind. I would consider wheels a wear item anyway but ouch...
