18s on a 99 GT

I was thinking about getting a set of silver 18" Rota battles.

I just wanted some feed back from other 18" wheel owners with 215/40/18 tires
.. do you wish you had gone smaller... do they rub alot....hows tire wear.. what tires do you use...
I'll take any other advice or comments... thanks for helping out...

225 is asking for lots of rubbing on a 99, even 215's if you go with 18's. 205 is the safest bet. I'd go for 17's as they are a good compromise between looks and performance and you can run 215's. Also, 18's are heavy unspring weight. But if your going for the bling and don't care to much for the "Go", Get some 18's.
