I have started to fit my new flares. I have Fuch's all around, 16x8 on the back and 16x7 on the front. I have been to 3 tires shops here in Seattle and I am frustrated as no one seems to be able give advice unless they match to a car year and model.

What do you all recommend? I want a lower profile, a flat to receding sidewall and good looks.

Here are some project shots...
Phase 3

Phase 3 - 2

TIA!
