Opinion: 17" or 18" on Stock 5.5 Gen?

Just want to know your opinions if I should look for 17" or 18" wheels for next years summer set.

I have a stock silver 2003 SE. I use the car for work. Lots of driving, 50/50 Highway/City. Driving around customers and boxes of crap. Need a comfortable ride on the crappy roads. From all the comments I read, I will not be lowering.

Looking at either the 17" or 18"(7 spoke) G35 wheels for next summer.
Will the 18" look too much of a 4X4???

if you don't drop your going to be high no matter what. the 19" m45 wheels are one of the hostest wheels for a 5g imo.

Yaa I know.
I know that the distance from the wheel to the wheel-well will be the same when the correct tire size is used. But visually will it look like crap going to a bigger 18" tire? Or is the difference between the 17" and 18" to small to see?

If I put the 19" M45 tire on a stock Maxima, I visualize it looking like a Jeep Compass or a Volvo XC
