Borbet C are better looking IMHO. Momo rims are way overpriced.
Not sure on quality of either tho, but AFAIK both are probably pretty
durable.

16s for sure. 15s are... well... 15s.... How can I sum up my
feelings towards 15" rims? If you dont want to get noticed, get 15s.
If you have a weak butt get 15s =p As far as tires are concerened,
stock size is 22.74". 205/40/16 is 22.46" & 205/45/16 is 23.26" &
215/40/16 is 22.77". My guess is 215/40/16 is the best overall size,
but may give you rubbing problems. Get 16x7" rims instead of 16x7.5".
That will help keep the tire a bit narrower. A 35-38mm offset should
do you right. How come you dont want to go larger than 16s? Really
bad roads where you are at?

Konis with H&R or Neuspeed springs will do nicely =p
