I am going to go with a 17 or an 18 inch Nissan or Infiniti rim, closes the gap better in my opinion

A nice finished product is due to exceptional prep work and the quality of product you are using. You aren't the first to do this. Search wheel restoration in the 3rd gen section and you'll find info on how to retrieve the look u want.
