im not sure but...

...i kinda think people buy bigger wheels to make it look like they have bigger wheels
i love oem, lip-less wheels plus they were dirt cheap
i think the changes i mentioned will help it
if not i can always sell and go back to my 166s

theres nothing wrong with having bigger wheels but theres a point where a certain size/type wheel becomes too big for the car and just doesnt look right, this is what i see when i look at your pics. this is my opinion which i though what you wanted to hear but i guess not.

just commented on something that sounded silly

of course lots of rubbing and burning of rubber
but the ride itself, aside from the constant noise and smell, was good and smooth

This sounds like the diary entry after my first sexual experience in high school.
Wish I could hook up with her again to show her how good ive gotten. when I think back on my first experience, i get the same feeling I get when i watch someone do really poorly at kareoke in a packed bar.
