My OEM Style 166 wheels came in today and it looks amazing in person. I want to put it on now, but i'll have to wait till winter is over. I will hopefully have these on around April. Stay tunned

Yeah, it cost a lot more for the OEM's but I'm sure the quality will hold up. Especially with NY roads which are horrible.

Welcome to the club man
Thanks. The pictures you posted helped me make my decision.

I wanted aftermarket 20's, but it was way too expensive and I was worried about NY roads.

Michelin makes an all season performance tire for that size rim now. Michelin Pilot Sport A/S. If you don't want to wait for winter to end there is an option for you. They have quite a few sizes. Check it out. http://www.michelinman.com/assets/pd...lotsportas.pdf

I am glad to have helped with your decision aesthetically. Now get 'em mounted and start enjoying the non-runflat ride
