I have 18x8's on my car w/ 235/35/zr18's on them and my car is yet to be lowered. I order springs today. I think the the wheels just still look small. and the height of the tire compared to the height of the well makes it look even taller. so I recomend going w/ lowering springs. as far a the width I would deffinetly go with the wider. wine are a little thin for the wheels. but still look good. and i would go with 40 or 45 series just because you will have a little more relief from the bumps, dont put on 35s they are just to stiff, unless you like a stiff ruff ride.

Yes, you will look like a 4x4. I rode around without springs for about 2 months.

Just couldn't stand it anymore.
