anyone else think huge wheels look silly?

I've noticed some of the pictures posted seem to show the car almost looking like they've put a lift kit on the car to fit the wheels.

Seems to me 19 is as big as you can go and still look good

what do you people think?

I'm pretty partial to 18"s... maybe 19"s at the most on a 3 series...

sure we can go up to 20"s even 22"s on a sedan... but more on the lines of a 7 series, S-Class, etc etc

It is not the size of the wheels that matters but it is the style of the wheel and height of the car. Now, that is one UGLY looking car!!!

Some big wheels look ok and some do not. It all depends on the style. Everyone has their own opinion and not everyone will see them the same.
