depends on what you want to spend. 18x9 and 18x10 looks good otherwise 17x9 and 17x10.5 looks good also

the difference in price is like 250, so i was just wondering if the size difference would look better,

I have 18s and love the look but hate the price of tires. Look at tire prices before making a decision.

+1 thats what I meant the price difference in the rims are not much but the price difference in the tires will be $$$

18s looks better imo. I gotta buy two 18x10s soon for when I get new tires. They didn't sell the deep dishes when I got my FR500s years ago.

18's in back and 17's in front thats old school, it takes a nice rim to pull it off, i think it gives the car a jacked ass end look but that only works for some cars not all.
