the style of wheel will play an important part in your decision. for instance, LMs only look good in an 18in due to the lip. did you have a particular wheel in mind?

17's look good while having that serious race look to them. 18's can look better at times but are a compromise in weight, handling and ride quality.

Which 16s? Which tires? I'm asking because one of the reasons I bought my 17" Volks was to have more choices in tires.

I'm specifically interested in 16" tires for the OEM rims that will perform well during the 4-5 month cold and wet season we have here.
