Im going to be getting some rims soon, probably within a month or two and I need some help on deciding the size and tires. Im pretty set on gun metal Rota Subzeros

Now the only decision remains whether to get 16x7s or 17x7s... and what tires to wrap them in. I was thinking of getting Kumho Supra Ecstas 712. Anyone have anyexperience with them? Any thoughts on the rims?

it all depends on where u drive the most man. if u have ****ty streets- would u sacrifice the ride and bent rims for comfort and some protection.

Wheel color is what you want it to be, but consider the body color too. MY 5th gen is Crystal Blue and looks great with silver. As to size-be sure of your decision to go "Plus 1". How and where you drive will be a factor here. Tire choice can be limited depending on wheel size. Personally I stayed with 16 x 7 and stock size tires for the road. Replaced the RE92s with Pirelli P8000 from NTB and also have RE730 for track days and future travel use.

Good luck, enjoy the wheels-very nice
