Default Such a thing as good looking 16's?

I know that 16’s are not the most popular choice, but I just bought new tires about a week ago so it’s too late for me to get anything bigger and since my stock rims are old and beat up I'm looking to get something new, anyway I’ve been looking and I’ve found some pretty decent looking wheels out there but if anyone has any suggestions or pics or anything on some of the better looking 16 inch wheels out there, let me know..

American Racing makes a really good looking Torque Thrust wheel in a 16x8 polished or glass bead center with machined lip .

IMO 18s look much nicer, but since you already have the tires 16s don't look horrible and do look good if you have a nice wheel. I think TT2 might look funny in 16s though

Maybe but I doubt it. One thing is for sure , they're cheaper lighter & faster & I believe you can get them in complete chrome plated version as well .

Boyd makes a wheel called Blaster in 16x8, looks really good, but at $400 each shipped, you could get all new tires and nice looking wheels.
