Question Would 16" rims look funny on ......

225/55's? Remember, my TL will be lowered in a few weeks so would it still look phat or should I wait for 17"'s??

Thanks,

I think they will look nice! It should look similar to OEM, but have a better side profile. A while back some one put 225/55/16's on. Can't remember who it was.

I saw the Pirelli P7000's on a stock TL rime with 225/55's..they looked nasty...The Pirelli P7000 Supersports look a lot better, as well as the Dunlop SP9000's, Bridgestone RE730's etc..
