ok, so its common knowledge that they are 16s, but how wide are they?? i just bought a set of 16s like..2 months ago, finaly got them finished painting and repairing. But after i threw the tires on the rims, and drove around on them last night for a few hours and i noticed that 2 of them, the air likes 2 slowly leak out. So i think it might be the rims are slightly beat up and it maybe because of that they are leakin. SO im gonna track down some GTS wheels since i have brand new rubber on it. Only thing is, on the tires they say "do not mount on rim wider than 6.5" " So im just trying to figure out if the OEM gts wheels are going to be wide enough/too wide. Thanks for the help.

they are 16x6.5

wrong


thre 16x7.5

no way it's 16x7.5
that's way too wide for stock gts rims...

well, I'm not sure what kind of 7th gen rims you have, but both my gts sets are 6.5 inches wide.

This thread is about GTS rims, not GT rims.

^that site says 16x6.5

i rmember looking at a site and i thought they said 16x7.5 oh well im sorry. my bad

I thought they were 7.5 also.. thats why I wanted to get them! But yea their 6.5..

lol i went on the basis that whatever site i got them from said 16x7.5 witha 35mm offset, so i got my rims 17x8 with a 32mm offset......good thing they fit lol

They are definately 16x6.5's. I was looking into getting some but I want to go wider than stock if I'm going to go bigger. That would be crazy awesome if they were 7.5in wide though. Oh well.
