Default Should I sell my rims and get 16".

Well, because of all YOU! I am starting to be convinced to sell my 17" and downgradeto 16". I put my rims up for sale a couple days ago and im getting a couple offers. But I just want to see what you guys think before I sell them. so...

Sell them and get 16" rims.

Keep the 17" rims.

Thanks!

If you can sell your wheels and not lose much money by buying 16s I would do it, but i wouldnt sell them and have to lose out. Go for a trade.

Do it man, get some 16's, run 45 series tires, drop your car a lil more (I noticed you mentioned that in another thread) and the car will look hot as ****. Not that it doesn't already, but it'll be even better

Any size rim looks goods on a 7thgen, as long as it's slammed.

Mill$ your car is sick, 16's with more of a drop would be even better.
