ASA is "Licensed" by BBS. But yes, they look great.

They look ok. Any wheel with a lip like that will look smaller so a 17" version of these will look smaller than the stock wheels. You asked what do you think, I say go for the 18s. Later on down the road if you get tired of them they will be 10x easier to sell. Just my .02

I know this is the style that everyone likes now a days... but I think they are too busy. I prefer a more simple rim like the following...

But if you prefer your rim I think it looks better in black with machined lip:
