18\" set up

Just wondering if anyone is running an 18" setup, pics would be gd if possible..... Looking for a nice aggressive look but would like to keep the ride comfort.

Car is on standard m sport suspention by the way if it's any difference.

Thanks

Dark Gun Metallic Advan RS.
If you're going to run 18" and want something aggressive, go without a lip. The lip will make your wheels look smaller.

Advans are stunning but way out of my price range tbh, I like the vmr series of wheels which they got one similar to the advan rs I think.

I would love to go with the 19" set up but where I live the roads are rubbish and even worse after the freezing weather we've had.
