16 or 18 rims

well, here is the big question, should i just buy some 16 inch rims for 500 or 600 or should i go all out and get 18 katana concept 10's?? they are 1300, idk what i should do, is it really worth over twice as much for just 2 inches?

ok then i retract my previous statement....do not go with 16" in chrome! It will look cheap as fuck! Go big if you're going with chrome. (but still go deep dish)

Why not 17's? that's what I'm going to get. It's the perfect comprimise between looking stock and looking flashy as well as not sacrificing too much performance.
