Do I have to stay with a 16"? Does anyone have any to sell? Want to buy the originals that I have?

Thanks!

PS - I'm in Tampa, FL
You can go with any size, you just need to stay within 3% of the original diameter and this is done by picking the right tire size.
Take a look at this for more info about that http://www.1010tires.com/TireSizeCalculator.asp

If you go 17" or 18", you'll probably want to lower your car or you will get a 4x4 look. When you get bigger rims, you will need to be more careful of curbs and potholes.

What is the bolt pattern on the originals and do you have any pics?
