[Nevermore]

Okay, so I've avoided making a thread about wheels for over a year. I thought I could get by without one, but I'm pretty sure I've worn my welcome thin asking questions in the off-topic section. So, here I am. I have been flip-flopping about wheels basically since I got the car and I just can't make up my mind. This isn't another "help me pick my wheels" thread. I just need some more specific insight that I haven't been able to find in the individual threads.

The hardest part seems to be the size. I just can't settle on one. I have a few potential sizes that I would like to explore that are all compromises themselves, so I'm not looking to compromise again, unless the argument is good.

16x7 - This size is the newest compromise and one I'm not opposed to because it's different, and could work. But it was met with opposition from the few people I asked. Why is this a bad size?

17x7 - Really where I want to stay. Easy to find/cheap tires, can keep them light. The problem is, I just can't find any I like, so I doubt I'll get one this size.

18x8 - The reason for the jump is all about tire sizes. I'd rather have this than a 17x8 because a 245/35 fits this better than a 225/45 fits a 17x8. Simple as that.
