I think you should get a different car.

If you get another car then you might be able to find a useful forum. Problem solved!

I've never understood the mentality of someone who asks for help and then gets cunty about it.

Yes, the base model comes with 18s, and I think they look OK. For a daily driver, going to 20s makes the ride harsher on crappy streets....I'm ok with a little more sidewall.

I liked my factory 18s enough to get them refinished in a better color.

I like those wheels a lot myself. Same color as my refinished stockers on the black car above.
