Those would look better on a truck or an old muscle car. Cant really see them on a 5th gen.

18's don't you think it's a little big?

i agree with pelka, i think they look better on a bigger car. They are nice wheels but i think they would look better on a truck on muscle car like pelka said.

Not the right style for a 5th gen. Subtle is better and a 17" will be just right. Take a look at the MR12 for example (what I have in 16"). The OZ Superleggera is also a nice design. I'm thinking simple is beautiful, but that is me.
