I think they look ok. It might just be the picture. Certain camera shots make my wheels look bigger than what they are also. 18's should be good. Whats your suspension setup?

The pics are a little small but they look good, I don't think the wheels look small at all

They don't look too small to me, but ask this guy for help, he's rather effective:

I'm pretty damn sure you have the wrong tires. I use 17" ROH Adrenalins on my 8G, and they don't look tiny:

How wide are those wheels?

I'd run with either a 235/45 R17 or 225/45 R17 tire. Those are close to the OEM aspect ratio, your current tires are not. They're throwing off your speedometer a lot.

I'm kinda scared to know. lol I'm guessing those have to be 35 profiles to sit that low.

Yea tire size I think would do it more justice...but as far as looking too small, I don't think so at all and I like the wheels themselves
