Anyone near Stuart FL? I located a set of tires in 255/50/16 I need for the Alien but the seller will not ship. I need someone to meet with this guy and pickup these tires and ship them to me. If you can help send me a pm.
TIA |

Yeah the tire issue sucks. I love the 16's fuchs on a 914. I tried 17" before & just liked the look of the 16's better than the 17's. One issue I think was the 17's I tried had the rsr look. While my 16's had the black centers with polished lips (my absolute favorite Fuch Combo). I went with the 16's because I liked the look better. Funny thing was I ended up picking up a set of 17" with the black centers. They look great & I won't go back to the 16's now. So I think it really is how it is configured. My recommendation is to keep your 16's with current tires. When you want that look throw them on. For most your driving. Get the 17's with the plethora of tire options. I doubt you will end up changing them that often.
