    Any 16x8.5 or 16x9 wheels available?

    With about a 35mm offset? And light? I don't want steel or $3,000.00 Keiser's. 5x114.3.

    This if for handling, not for looks. Yes, I understand that the fenders will require work.

    Thanks.

    With a quick search I found that Kosei K1 used to be made in 16x8.5 +37, also many $$R wheels in 16x8.5 and 16x9.

    Yeah, I don't believe Kosei makes the K-1 in those sizes to fit the EP. My choice would be their K4R but, alas. Thanks.

    I unfortunately don't know of any affordable wide 6s. I know 949 has 15x9


    Xxr has 16x8.25

    Not sure of the offsets available for them though. Still not that wide. Good luck and let us know ie always wanted to have 16s wider then 8

    Well, so far the lowest priced 6x9 wheel I can find is an SSR at about $600.00. Ouch.

    2400 is a lot of money for wheels... Try and find some bbs rs they're like a dime a dozen these days an you can refinish them and add larger lips if you can't find x9

    You mean get them re-rimmed? I think they are a bit heavy, aren't they?

    I called them about a year or so ago and they have no intention of going with 16s since they are strictly race oriented. I'd also go with their 17x9s eventually but they are 48 offset iirc.

    I wanted to get 16x9 to use while my 225s lasted (two are almost new) and start working on some custom flares, then eventually go with 17x9s and R1R 245/35s. I guess I could do 16x8 and use spacers to equal 17x9s for just the fender work. I don't think 16x8s are worth spending too much. Or just say screw it and save for 17s.
