Those 16's are nice, but they look like a MISSION to clean. I liked the 17's because they looked more sporty.

Step up to a set of 18's :v

NEVER buy anything from Al at bestdealsonwhls.com. He is a fraud and sells replica wheels claiming they're oem and even ships them with the wrong tire size for your car. You're stuck with useless garbage and he won't stand behind it. He offered to refund my purchase, minus the $500 I've got in shipping and brokerag fees... But many he's done the same too says the money never comes or he refuses the return shipment so you're out even further plus you've still got the junk he sold you. AVOID.

STILL. I wish I would have found out about his past. All I can do is try and let others know. He should be shot. Any takers?
