best 16" rims?

I'm now thinking about getting 16" instead of 17" rims since they'll be lighter and perform better, or so ppl have been saying here. Anyone have any suggestions of good 16" rims, since alot of good rims are only 17" and larger? So far, my top choices are Enkei RSF2 and the 5Zigen fighters. Thanks in advance for any recommendations.

hi and thanks, checked it out already though, along with discounttiredirect and wheelmax. are there any other (besides street-trendz, which doesn't carry 16" rims) good wheel sellers (good prices/selection) out there?

actually, i've changed my mind yet again and decided to get 17" rims again... i feel like toxxins but they are hard to find. don't have em at discounttiredirect and wheelmax doesn't even list konig wheels on their site anymore.

if you want 16's or 17's, make sure they don't have a lip. wheels without a lip make them look bigger than they are and wheels with lips look smaller than they are.
