These cars are bigger than the previous 4th gen and need a big wheel look right, they look good to me. He has some nice wheels, maybe when i do put a new set on my 01 I'll see what he has.

Looks like a great wheel...but does not seem to go well with the car. I think them even look larger than 22 due to the straight multiple spoke design. Like the ones before better.

It seems you are repeating someone elses argument without giving it a bit of thought. So if what you say is true lets go for a 30 inch wheel right?

You do realize that an 18" wheel in an OEM height 29" tire will have a 5.5" sidewall height, correct? 29-18 = 11, divide by 2 = 5.5" inches.

So yes, a wheel with 5.5 inch sidewalls will indeed look like a truck tire when it is 29" tall.

Here is a reference pic, showing how big the 2010 wheels/tires are.

I'm not saying it should have 18's. I just think it shouldn't be over 20". Those 22's and the other ones you posted, just look too big on the car.
