I like both of them, but I've choose the 167's for my Black Beauty. The reason is that they give her a unique, slick and simultaneously aggressive look, plus they are way lighter and mainly forged, while 166's, aren't.
You can estimate the results in my signature pics.

Here is an example, I must mention that my car was hopping and shaking like never before (talking about the deep one) :thumbsdown:

Did you have a balance problem when you put the wheels on or are you talking about the rather large holes you seem to have in your roads
