If those are your only options then go with the 166, gotta love how aggressive it looks. The problem is that it's too common now so may be look into other wheel styles unless you can find a great deal onthe OEM. I have no feeling for the 172. No offense to those who has it.

I'm looking more towards the 166 but like you said it seems to common.....What do think on matte black 166?

I think matte black 166 would look nice since it has some contrast with the car's color.

Private members classified but you will need some more posts before they can PM you. Pics will help speed up the process.

What kind of wheels do yo have anyway?

or you can have the face polished and do black background. I'm not very familiar with the technical terms but haven't seen polished 166 with matte black on the inside yet.

Remember to post pics when you're done.

Don't know why you "start new topic" is greyed out. May be you're required to have certain amount of posts before you can start new thread. What style of wheels you have? I think both 123 and 124 came in 18". If you can't post it here yet, why not try other forums.
