   In order of your questions
   
   15's
   Most people say Toyo Proxies
   Depends on colour of car and look your going for tbh.

   15s
   toyo proxies are mint
   n black wheels look good on silver, black and some blue cars

   I think 15's are the best allround size to go for as you can lower it what you want (within reason) with no problems. As with 16's you need 40 profile tyres to avoid problems at 60mm.
   
   BTW if that is your interior in your aviator it looks mint

   Those wheels are really nice, one of the Ashford lot (Si) had them on his saxo when he had it they are mint. The lip is highly polished and they look great

    Yeah you can put 16's striaght on, but you need to get 40 profile tyres ideally which are more expensive than the ones required for 15's which are 45 profiles. But the choice is yours
