Thanks everyone for the comments, i'll attach a couple more photos a little later! I thought they flowed with the car well without being too obnoxious.

They're deffinately 18's, i think they look smaller because of the wheel well gap and the amount of tire. But thats why i chose 18's as opposed to 20's, because the roads in upstate NY get destroyed from our winters and i wanted a little protection just in case i hit a pot hole or some rough roads, railroad tracks, ect.

Plus im thinking about lowering the car a little bit next spring but i'm indecisive on which to do between plans for performance, handling, and exterior so i usually try to rotate through them so it may be longer than anticipated :p

And yess Space i agree!! I do need a new sig!!

It's just so weird, because I also have the same rim size and tire size and they don't look like that lol.

Weird optical illusion for sure!

They look good dude. I don't know whether to get black or chrome wheels for mine. What do you guys think would look better?

Chibi i think what may add to the optical illusion is the fact my spokes curve in towards the center line of the wheel as your spokes stay on the outside of the rim ehh either way i'm happy with them

chris5115, i like the look of chrome imo, and ik some people hate it on cars. However black with a chrome/machined lip might look pretty good on your car as well. Its all personal preference!!
