Default 18"s on fox?

Do 18"s look good on a fox or is 17" as big as you can go and not look tacky? I'm thinkin about doin black paint job, and black rims with polished lip or something along those lines, not quite figured out yet, but I thought it might be better to go alil bigger seeing as black rims usually kinda look smaller.

those 18" saleens look real nice IMO. I kinda think if I did end up goin black rims, 18"s might be better just cuz I think black wheels usually come out lookin smaller, I Dunno though I have a while to think about it.
