Hi all, has anyone ever seen a LX hatch with 16x8 superlite wheels on it? Im unsure whether it would look good or not? Would be putting someon a race car. These are the wheels here.

You know what? I reckon these wheels actually look better on non flared Toranas than flared ones.

Yep, I have 16x8 at each corner on mine as stated above, they fit with no drama's , and dont look half bad. Personally think the Superlight name is overstating things a little........
They also do a 16x10 in them as well now.

I think you are not really get to see what you are after as different ride heights different and then there are different colour s for the car and mag centers and flared or not I had a look those mags on my car and on a red car gold centers looked good but other cominations didnt work so well

Yeah, well, that's half the fun of building a car.I think you are not really get to see what you are after as different ride heights different and then there are different colour s for the car and mag centers and flared or not I had a look those mags on my car and on a red car gold centers looked good but other cominations didnt work so well
You get an idea, you look at similar examples to get a better understanding of how it will be, then you create your own version. Some hit, some miss.

Interesting! Thanks for this thread. I'm looking to swap the superlites on my LX. And go up to 15x10z to be honest I prefer them with more sidewall rod the tyre to contrast the wheel, and I'm glad I saw this thread! Was thinking 16x10
Now happy to settle for 15 x10
Here's a shot of them at 15in on my LX at the Moment
