Most people would upgrade to 19"+ wheels and lower it. I don't see why you want 18" aftermaket which is same size as your oem one.

Just curious, what do you do with your oem wheels once you installed aftermarket wheels? If you sell it, then so how much? IMO, the 08 dark graphite looks better than the 06-07 silver rims and break dust would be less visible as well.
