[Sorted] 16" Wheels TE37 Matt black or black

After some genuine 16" TE37s for my SW20. Hoping for matt black. Don't care about flush fitting, but want preferrably 16x7 and 16x8, but will also take 16x6.5 and 16x7.
Anyone know where I can get these?
Someone on ebay is selling a set with 15s on the front... wouldn't that look weird?

    You might be better off looking at 17" wheels. 16" tyre choices are limited and can be more expensive than 17's.
    I considered 16" wheels when i changed wheels, but i went to 17" because of the range of tyres available.

    Thanks Rick I'm still tossing up the 17 inch option. I've never liked the look, but as you say more options available and big brakes can fit too.
     
    EDIT: I'm currently running 205/45/16 Nitto Neo Gen on the front and love them... really good tyre

    What kind of money are you looking to pay? I could source some from Japan for you, but probably looking at ~$1700 for a set?

    Yes, tyre choices are more limited for 16''s… but they feel great on an SW20 and look the best too. I won't stop using them until I have to.
     
    (All just personal opinion, of course!)

    Thanks I ended up buying some 16 inch RPF1s. A guy quoted me $250,000 for TE37 16 inch since the factory would have to make the dies again... that was slightly out of my budget.
