Why do you want to get 16" wheels, to accomodate larger brakes or just for looks? 15" R rated tyres are alot cheaper than 16" ones.
If you do go for 16" wheels then the ideal size would be 16x7.5 with an ET of 25.

Cost goes up a LOT for 16" 888's over the 15".
If you've got no brake clearance issues, don't bother would be my opinion!

i'd heard that getting 15" tyres was getting harder, but having looked at some sites this afteroon, think i'll be staying with 15s !
