The only rims that do look alot bigger than what they are, are rims without a lip. Motegi MR7's for ex. 18's look like 20's sometimes. If you want a rimwith a lip they're gonna look smaller

You get what you pay for. Nothing is gonna look bigger. If unsure, people will look at ur tires anyway. If u wanna look like u have 19's, get 19's. 20's, try and fit 'em. I'd actually say some lipped rims look bigger. The lip folding over the tires can make the edge to edge measure about an inch more than what the rim really is. What size do you want it to look like u have? Just save up and get that. Otherwise, ur just gonna wish u did in the end.

i got tsw revo's in 18's and they tend to look a little big since the rim spoke goes all the way out to the outer most part of the rim.
once i get these bad boys powder coated gunmetal or hyper black or something along those lines they will look much better with the new look. later

Mine are about the same as Ryans_RS's.
Spokes go way out to the end and look like 19's sometimes. My last wheels were Konig Tuners 17" rims and people asked if they were 15-16's all the time. The did look small though.

I get the same questions KaptainMyke gets about my RS6's. They're 18's, but some people think they're bigger. I think it also helps when the inside of the wheel isn't cluttered - our RS6's have a pretty clean section around the rotors. Granted, my stock GS rotors now look like Geo Metro rotors (lol), but I like em. I guess the wheels give me a good reason to upgrade my brakes. My .02

Since I got them on, I've been asked several times if they are 17s...they are 16s
