Is this a no-go? I wasn't sure if they would clear the brakes or not. Anyone know for sure?

you can find aftermarket wheels that are bigger than the 16" but still have the same design.

Click to expand...

Why are you asking though? The 16" fit the rear just fine with no modification. I never tried the front but will when I get near my car again...

My car with 05 16" V6 wheels on the rear...

I just see these wheels + tires that people are taking/have taken off going for dirt cheap, I was actually thinking of picking a set up to use then when the tires are gone use them for winter wheels (snow tires!)

I would REALLY be interested if they clear the front brakes, as they are much larger then the rears...

interesting picture you got there! thanks
