I have no idea what rims I'm going to end up getting for Guinness. Can't decide between downsizing to 15" rims and going with some inexpensive (and LIGHT) bronze Koenig Helium's or staying with 16" rims and going with some relatively expensive (and LIGHT...and FORGED) gunmetal SSR Competitions.

Price difference is quite significant...to the tune of more than double the price for the 16s...

Guinness is my Miata...I don't have an S...

I'm currently running 16" rims that I don't like on the car and want to change. It's mostly a looks and weight thing for me. I need to do a weight comparison on the two setups. For track use I actually have two different sets of R compound tires on stock 14" rims...so this is strictly for street use I'm talking about...

I know 16 is big enough. I'm trying to debate whether to stick with 16 or step down to 15. 16s almost look too big to me sometimes...

I'm still debating. I have a feeling it'll come down to money. I'm not really overly concerned with looks. As long as I like the rim and it does it's job I'm pretty happy. I just REALLY don't care for the rims I have...though I like them more now that I pried off the mismatched center caps and may just run them like this for the forseeable future...
