Can do 8x16 6 spokes (in limited offsets) but 17" would be ok too.

If you want big brakes then Comps is the way forward ( i know that ) but as for looks the RS7"s win by a mile ,,IMO tho

Old 7 spokes looked way better.

Doubt you would notice the difference in handling on track to be honest. Plenty of other places to save weight that would help there if your that bothered.
