Default will 16" wheels fit on the 225TT?

I'm just trying to figure out if I can even put 16" wheels, for snows, on mine. If I can't, I shouldn't bother trying to find the OEM 16" wheels and look for some OEM 17" 6-spoke wheels.

Default Right I know 16" is OE on the 180TT...

But I thought the front brake rotors on the 225 was larger. I figured since the 225 came with 17" normally, there might be a reason, such as they were needed to fit over the larger rotors. If the OEM 16" wheels fit fine, then I can look for a set from some of you guys perhaps .

Default Curious what they look like. Got some pics?

I'm still a bit iffy on the look of the OEM 16" 5-spoke. I definitely like the look of the OEM 17" 6-spoke. Haven't really seen a 3rd party wheel that I like, yet.

BBS made, 16x7 I believe? 205 continentals on them... absolutely mint condition, full tread, 5kmiles on the set.

those tires actually do great in snow too... everything from snowpack with ice to 8" deep powder
