Default Widest 16" rim for MY02rs?

Hello
I am starting the hunt for the widest/lightish 16" rim that will fit on my MY02 RS. The Susp. will be Konis with stock springs (most likely). I will not be lowering the car if I can help it. I will be mounting 225/50/16 kdws tires, which I already have. When they are gone, I'll mount 225/45/16 tires. Better spin up.
I know ROTA has 16x 8
This is for both performance and look. My personal taste of course.
I'll be buying this summer.
Thanks
Shawn RS


I have big plans for this car in the future.

Well if you plan to keep the 225's, your current rims are perfect in size. A set of Volks, or other prestigious brand could produce a lighter rim. Also, you can go as wide as you want. You could fit 12" wide rims under there. But don't expect your tires to last long. As your fenders will be rubbing on them, with stock springs.
