Default Rim Question for Winter

Looking to get some winter rims, the black steelies, or just some used rims.
What do I need to know for the rims before I go hunting for them??

I have 18"s now, but I want to just put 16s on for winter. The LS tires are 215 70 16, so I'm looking at somewhere there.

I know they need to be 16", 5 X 114.3, Offset is 38mm, and the width of the rim is 6.5m...Anything else

Also, does it matter how wide the rim is, the LS stock rims are 6.5, but can I go less or more? Also, what is the offset of a rim and the center bore??

Thanks

Yep the TPMS will be removed for the summer along with the rims.
They are wireless right? Therefore removing the stock rims takes care of the TPMS going away? Do I need to re-set it when I put back the stock rims on??

Center bore is 67.1

FYI, I used a set of Gen 1 Eagle Talon wheels on my Outlander. Bolt pattern and center bore are identical. They are 16"x6" and work perfectly with my 215/70R16 tires. I have 3 extra rims for sale. If you are local (Ontario), PM me for details.

Removing the tpms from the wheels means you will have a tpms warning light on your dash all the time.
