45 all around...I don't think they make the 16x7's in 48, only the 16x8s.
Anyway, as promised
I love them so far. Look good in person and light as hell. I bathrrom scale weighed them 13.2 lbs before mounting, and once I had the tire on the difference between them and the 17's I was running (with same model tire) was 8.2 lbs per corner!
Make sure you get some tuner lugs. The stock ones technically fit on the wheel, but I doubt you have a lug socket that is small enough to tighten them without scratching the wheel.

Did you have to use hubcentric rings or bore out the wheel to make it fit?
Trying to get information on running a set of 16x8 +48 Rota Slipstreams on my S2000.

I just want to see if they will fit. I already own the wheels and would like to use something a bit lighter for my upcoming Auto-X day.
