*I originally posted this in Wheels/Tires/Brakes, but I've decided to move it out here so more passers-by/Photoshop whizzes see it.
Anybody know anything about them? I've emailed Tirerack twice asking for some specifics and they said they won't have them til they start shipping the wheels at the end of October. They're dirt cheap, so I worry a bit about quality.
Specifically I'm intrigued by their 16X7.5, 4X114.3 wheels (I02, I04, I05). They don't have offsets or weights listed yet. Offset is mostly the issue here, since it determines how wide of a tire I can fit. The weight is kind of second fiddle, it's a street car after all, and 16"s shouldn't be heavy anyway.

I have a Sentra, so a 7.5in wheel is about all that's worth my time without a fender roll. I also want to go back to 16"s from my current 17" setup. It looks cleaner, IMO.
PICS! Yayyyy...
I02
I04
I05
My car (on stock 16"s for size reference), anyone want to Photoshop them on?
I'm leaning toward the I04's as the I05's would be too busy at that size, and the I02's groove in the spokes throws me off a little bit, though I can't really explain why.
Thanks.
