Ugly as sin...I like the first wheels much better (the 17's)

i think they are too big for the car to be honest.... maybe try some 18x9's?
 

While I like the wheels I too think they're too BIG. They would be perfect in 17's for sure. They're off a friend's Evo. We swapped wheels so he could dyno his car. He's got his wheels back now.

18's are borderline too big, IMO. And this is coming from a guy that had a couple sets of them on his car several years ago. 17's are just right in both aesthetics and performance.

YOU HAVE DIED OF DYSENTERY!




18 inch wheels look a little too big/gaudy.

Those 19's above just look like they belong on a Conestoga Wagon... especially in that color.

I don't know... I think I like it. I mean, they fit pretty well and you haven't taken the springs out of your car, and you can easily traverse speed bumps, so it looks alright.

I've got 18s on my project car and in my opinion they look very good with the correct offset. They really fill the arches well.

I noticed Tony's EVO in front. Are those the CE28s he had on his old white 1G?

I didn't like them on the galant, but they look good on the evo. I think your first picture with 17's looks good though.
