Theres no issues with running 16's on the EP. The fact that it is the same car (chssis) as the AUDM ITR and they run 16's.
Have a look at the pic on page 214. I have my ITR 16's on there! ;D
EP3 r already have some traction issue's with there oem 17'' wheel and you have to 16'' good luck..
what difference will there be?Quote:

if you really want 16'' and still want ok traction 16'' 7'' wide!
Coz the oem is 17'' 7'' wide!
just my 2 cent if you planing to get new rims for your godly JDM EP3 R get wheels that is 7.5''-8'' on 17''-18'' wheel if not just get wider rubber for your oem wheels.
yeah just no point of down grade!!
guys dont to take my words is just IMO thats all.
err i may a noob but i fail to see how going to 16s will induce more wheel spin.
as long as the tyres size compensate the reduced wheel size (ie. fitting higher profile tyres), there shouldn't be any problem.
I run 16's with cheap tyres and have done a 13.6 down the quarter. You telling me if I put on my 17" rims, I'd do a better time?? Dont think so!!
"Traction" is usually down to the type of tyre. It really has no relevance when it comes to wheel size as such, just which type or tyre and wheel to suit your application.....eg, drags, track, rally etc.....
Obviously wider the better, no one will argue with that. Just comparing for CTR and ITR, 205/45/17 and 205/55/16....no right biggy there.
Realistically, for looks, you'd go 18's. But I like my OEM/USDM look and prefer smaller wheels. Thats just me!
