Trying to decide what wheel looks nicer with Alpine White, 166's or 167's. I guess it's all in the eye of the beholder so a few pics would be greatly appreciated. thx!
I would go with 166, because a) I prefer them b) they are M5 wheels!
But the 167 are better, technically : very light and more resistant than 166!

They both look great and are much easier to clean VS 172s but I love the look of the 172s.
