Both are great wheels, but I think it's the number of spokes that are on the 166's that just completes the look of the car more than the 167's. Either way, good place to be to have to choose between these two types of wheels....

I just got 167 reps on my alpine white. Ill send you pics as soon as I lower my car on Wednesday. I'm waiting for everything to be done before I post pics. 167's are a darker silver in person then I thought they would be. But they look AMAZING, sepecially with dark tints.

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.... However it is a personal preference!

Check your bump stops after the drop. Like I said, you will have to cut them prior...1 inch in rear and 1.25" (at least) in front.
