Default 16 in CE28Ns

I've been doing lots of thinking and I think I'll go with 16x7, +48 offset for the front, and 16x8, +42 offset for the rear. I just want to make sure they'll fit fine with my stock 205/225 S02s. I already chose those offsets according to the wheel fitment guide but I just wanna make sure because wheels aren't cheap.

And where in the world can I find some pics of 16 inch CE28Ns on non-lowered cars. Any advice here? Will it look goofy with the stock 205/55 and 225/50, on stock suspension?

I'm thinking of the gold ones but I also considered the bronze ones. My car's red (new formula red). What do you guys think? I really hope there are some pics T__T

I think the advan RG is nice too but they don't come in the right sizes for 16s.

Those sizes and offsets will work fine with stock tires. I don't think it will look "goofy", but they will look smaller than stock because of the spoke style.

this may have some relation but does the width of the rim have somewhat of an effect on the face/lip/spoke protrusion of the rim?? For example Would a 17x9.5 +47 have the same face/spoke protrusion as a 16x7+47 rim?

My 16" CE28N are 16x7+48 [F], 16x8+49 [R] and appear pretty flush. The +49 rear may be more ideal than +42.

Here's how they look at stock ride height. I'm running a 1" smaller dia front tire, so there won't be as much gap if you use OE size.
