Default 16 Inch Black Wheels?
I am planning on getting new black wheels and tires very soon and trying to decide on which wheels to go with. I have pretty much decided on the tires and will be going with 33s. I think I want to go with ProComp La Paz wheels but can't decide on 17s or 16s. It looks like going with 16s will save me about $250 as the tires and rims would both be less expensive.

Any recommendations or pics of 33s on 16" black wheels?

yes they are. I was extremely happy with them. I have to say for a cheaper rim the Raceline raptors appeared to be of great quality.

This looks great! Did you have to make any other modifications besides the tires, wheels and spacer on your rig? i.e. brake lines, shock adapters, etc? This is exactly what I want on mine!
