tasteful, but they look a bit dated for me...partly due to the earlier comments about the size appearance...as long as you like them though

These rims look small because the lip profile is so large on them. It's kind of like the Advan RS-D styles on the Evo X. If I got rims like that, I would go with 19s to have the rim faces fill more of the wheel well. But that's just my opinion, looks good though.

Looks a lot better dropped. I like the wheels.... I think they look small because the lip has a step (whatever it's called) making the center section/spokes look smaller in diameter....

Too low IMO but WAAAY better than stock.

No that isn't the reason. Height doesn't make wheels look smaller or bigger. It's that any lip wheel will make it look 1" smaller. Example, 19" lip wheel looks like 18", 18" lip wheel looks like 17" and so forth. Depth of the face on a wheel is obscured by the shadowing/reflection of the lip making the face look smaller. The opposite affect is achieved with a super concave wheel that starts at the lip of the barrel. Example, 18" concave looks almost like 19" wheel, 19" concave looks almost like 20". The starting point of the face on where it is attached on the barrel is where it gives the illusion of either a bigger or smaller wheel.

What size you think are on my car?
