ok, so its common knowledge that they are 16s, but how wide are they?? i just bought a set of 16s like..2 months ago, finaly got them finished painting and repairing. But after i threw the tires on the rims, and drove around on them last night for a few hours and i noticed that 2 of them, the air likes 2 slowly leak out. So i think it might be the rims are slightly beat up and it maybe because of that they are leakin. SO im gonna track down some GTS wheels since i have brand new rubber on it. Only thing is, on the tires they say "do not mount on rim wider than 6.5" " So im just trying to figure out if the OEM gts wheels are going to be wide enough/too wide. Thanks for the help.

well, I'm not sure what kind of 7th gen rims you have, but both my gts sets are 6.5 inches wide.

They are definately 16x6.5's. I was looking into getting some but I want to go wider than stock if I'm going to go bigger. That would be crazy awesome if they were 7.5in wide though. Oh well.
