I've seen the 18" Nitrous wheels on a few cars, and they don't look right, I think the size is too small for all the detail the wheels have. If your going with the Foose Nitrous go with 20's...JMO

Here are some pics of my 20" Nitrous Rims. Please note that I have the Ebiach Pro Kit, which lowers the car by 1.5 inches. If you are going to get new rims, I recommend lowering your ride to give you a better look.

Wow very Nice car! I also have the springs in my garage, but I am onlyh gonna put them on if I get the 20's. Still trying to see the major difference between what the 18's look like on the car.

If you get the 18s, you need to get VERY VERY short valve stems. The valve stems are not on the visible part of the wheel, but rather inside where the brakes are. Mine just barely clear the brakes and I have 20s
Also, the Nitrous is a very meaty wheel. I think in 18s it might look like a little too much metal. I think 20s are perfect for this wheel/car combo.
Also remember you have 3 color choices in the Nitrous too.

The wheels themselves are not going to effect the ride height of the car exce[t for maybe 1/4"-1/2" since they are slightly larger. That is mainly controlled by lowering springs. The car is going to sit the same regardless of which wheel you choose. If you go with 18's you will have a tire with more sidewall than with the 20's that is the only difference.
I have 20's pictures are in my gallery.

I was in the same boat as you. when i saw 2 sets of 18 foose at a show they looked really small. The 20s parked next to them looked great but i wanted to stay with n18s so i found a set of polished oem takeoffs.
