Default is this a good deal to upgrade from my stockies?

I was wondering if this would be a good deal, if they even fit.. so would these wheels fit, and if so would it be a good deal for 16" Advanti Racing ADR wheels with BFGoodrich Euro T/A tires 205/40R16 with %50 tred for $150? thanks

u should buy em and sell em...i bet you can make more money that way and buy the wheels u really want....i personally think 16s are too big on EFs...i think 15s are the way to go...even 14's look good on em...

also if ur car is not lowered and u put it on 16s that sheet is gonna look awkward

For $150, its worth it, and yes, they'd fit... I'd say, clean em and sell em, and buy some rotas or something. and 15"ers would be best.

16" will also impact performance to a significant degree.

A 205/40-16 tire has a smaller overall diameter than a 205/50-15 by about 0.6" . . .

i like them wheels alot. most people prefer 15s with beefy 205/50 tires w/stiff sidewalls

i think 16s are great for the 88-91 CRX/CIVIC. would be perfect for me B swap, big downpipe, bodykit and lowered
