Wheels/tires

Hey, does anyone have any pics of aftermarket wheels on their car? I was wondering if I should get 17" or 18" wheels for my 04 Max. I do not want to go over 18" but I dont want the 17" to look stupid. Any thoughts on what I should get?

6th Gen

Is there a section where people with 6th gen have posted pictures with wheel upgrades on here? I can not find anything.

18" all the way. Some lightweight wheels like Nismo, Kosei, Enkei etc

Get some 20's atleast. you'll keep wanting something bigger if you go small.

Well I don't like chromes at all, and 20's are way too big and expensive. Especially when I have to buy tires for them.

I'm going to buy a set of 17" for winter and keep the 18"(OEM) as summer wheels.

KOSEI K3 SILVER 7J 17" offset-36mm Their weight is just 7,9kg(17.4 lbs) I know these will look too small on a A34, but the weight is more important to me

What about these in 17's? Would they look stupid?
