Bought these used in SC last year but never got around to fitting them.
Fairly rare in 8" width as most 4x100 16s are 7".

Center bore ~72mm (will verify)
BFG g-Force Sport Comp 2 (summers) 205/45 R16 stamped 3018 with plenty of tread left.
Slight curb rash on one of the wheels but should be easily fixed as it's not deep.

Nowhere really but I wanted to run 225/45 summers and keep my stock no seasons for the colder months.
There are however hardly any suitable 16” tars sold here, unless you wanna go full with TW200 Proxes R1R or Direzza ZIII, so figured I’ll try to find a set of 17s instead.
Now Mini may end up going too if things don’t start to pick up again soon..

Toyo Proxes R1R tires are and there’s not much else.
Personal experience?
Also having done some googling and IG’ing, I think I prefer the look of 17s on R53 & R56 too.
Yours is a good example of that.

I put Toyo tires on my C5 and they were 100% meh. Would not recommend, and agreed it's mostly due to old technology. I believe the tires I put on were engineered in the early 00's.
