Those flik wheels are pretty nice. If I were you, I'd just buy the adapter kit because its almost impossible to find a nice mesh wheel that fits the 4x110 pattern. You could always go with panasports also, those look very nice on 1st gens and I think they make them in the right size for your car.

Scroll up to the pic of my old silver fb with the parts car front end. NO NEED FOR ADAPTERS! They're screaming "buy me please"

Yeah I think I've decided to buy Panasports. Black center and a polished lip will do nice!

17s just seem too big to me, how wide are they? Do you get fender rub? I plan to autocross this car...

They're only 7" wide. My stock 4 spoke 13's with factory spec tires were about an inch taller side by side. They wont rub and they're pretty light too. I'm sure they wont be as light as panasports. Personaly I love my wheels, but recently I fell in love with the idea of going with flares and half fabricating a widebody kit. I want to put some staggered 18's on it.

Where can you get Panasports? How much do a set of 16's go for on average for a gsl-se lug pattern?
