Default looking for a good 16"

Hello, I write from Italy, a beutiful country but with a big problem... the law says that I only can have 16" rims...

so, cause I HATE stock rims, I am looking for a beautiful aftermarket rim, for S2000. I searched a lot but don't find anything I like that fits correctly to s2000 (ET 40 - 50 , and 16x7 or 7,5 for fornt, and 16x8 or 8,5 for rear).

Can someone suggest me something?
thank a lot!

Get a set of Spoon SW388's. Its a very light weight racing wheel and will help with acceleration .

You can get the Rota Slipstream which is a knockoff in flat black, 7" +45 front and 8" +48 rear. I have also seen Volk CE28 in 16", they are super light.

Is there a rule you can't upside wheel diameter? Isn't there a way around that since the 04+ come with 17" stock?

In Italy no way to have bigger size, it's increible I know...

anyway, i like very much SW388 but i don't know where I can find them... Rota it's a cheap solution but i HATE fake / wannabe things

I like very much RPF01, but they are with extreme ET:
16x7 +43
16x8 +38

the rear size is a problem... in your opinion i can fit them rolling the rear fender?

the CE28N is beautiful too but very very expensive, and not imported in Italy so i have to pay high shipment costs and fees... anyway where can i find ET / width of CE28N in 16" diameter?

thank you very much,
Stefano
