Thanks for the input everyone.

The roads here are horrible otherwise I would, so lowering is not a option.

I might try beefier tires next time around and possibly spacers to see how it looks.

I think they do look to small and im guessing you do as well. Without a drop they just dont look right to me, I feel your pain though I have 20's with no drop but lowering a car in Buffalo NY whereI live just inst worth it

18" is fine, but I'm not sure about your offset and tire size. What are the specs on those?

I couldn't get a nice look at the sticker on the inside of the wheel but from what I could see it should be 18x8.5 +50 and tire size is 225/40ZR18 92Y

Drop it. You'll be fine after. Spacers to line everything up would be a nice touch - thats on you though.

18"s are the stock size (well 350 at least) shouldnt look too different.
