thanks for all the input guys but I have decided not to lower the car, I know it will look a million times better if I did but I don't want to.

As for the rims, i will go with 18" Charcoal AMR

only problem is I'm stuck trying to decide 18x8 or 18x9 - 18x10 is too wide for my taste

which do u prefer and why?

which would look better for a stock height? 18x9 or 18x8?

(i want all 4 to be same size)

I like the 18x9's with 255/45's because the tires width range on the 9" wheel makes for a good balance between ride quality and handling.

This was my reference when I first selected wheels and tires for my car...

I have 18x9 with 275/40r18, I love the wide look and the extra tire on the pavement.
