17's on my '85 GSL-SE

The pictures are not the greatest cause I killed off the clutch and have it sitting on the side of the house next to my mom's Firechicken and the bushes.

I think he just rolled the rims and tires in front of the ones on the car.

All depends on taste. I'm going to get 16's, but Solid Snake and Knight1976, those look very attractive.
