Where is Amy? I want to know the offset on those wheels. I think they come in 40 and 45. I want the same setup with a set of Rota GT3s.

Are those it? Looks like they have some sort of "universal" bolt pattern. Is it possible that they come with different offsets and bolt patterns?

Sorry It took me an day to find this thread LOL I had an install day at my place yesterday so I wasn't online at all really. Thanks for all the compliments, and thanks Matt for telling me something I already know

Wheels are the 5x114.3 16x7" with a 45mm offset. They are not universal, the extra set of holes on them are slightly elongated ovals and not stud holes. Tires are 205/55/16 Kumho 716 H4. I traded a set of wheels for them and they already had those tires on them and were brand new so I kept them . I have been growing to like the wider sidewall as well, it rides a little better and handles fine actually. Here is some info on the tires

Cool, good info. Did the wheels come with center caps or are they meant to have an "unrefined" look?

Edit: would 48 mm offset work better?

They didn't have center caps. I got them from another person not brand new, but I dont believe there are centercaps for slipstreams.... 48 would would work better but they dont make 16's with a 48mm offset, only the 17's. The 17's are 17x8 or 17x8.5 and that might be to wide but I'm not really sure.
