depends on price i guess.
they're not a bad rim, but a lot of the time the price between 2nd hand 16" rims vs 2nd hand 17" rims isnt much.

They look like 4WD rims in my opinion.

THey look like a modern version of the 70's style jelly beans.. ALot nicer wheels around but if the price is right an upgrade is an upgrade
