Feedback on these wheels

I have a buddy that is going to sell me these wheels for 300 with tires. What do you think of them. They are 18 by 7.5. i photoshopped them onto my car.

Unfortunately they are pretty brutal sizing but they would look alright otherwise. 7.5 is way too skinny for an 18.

30 would be optimal, at least 35.

18s should have a 30ish offset. 7.5 is way too small.

Man those things are ugly as sin...Didnt one guy on here have them in 19's on his car or something? I remember it was a blue car, might have had some sort of vinyls on it, and he got his hot gf/wife to pose on it in a bikini.

they look like lawnmower blades, butt ugly, and terrible photoshop, I have 18's and they look nothing like that, and 7.5 thats to skinny, just wait for what you really want dude dont settle for something just because its a good deal.
