Pictures of cars with 16 inch wheels and lowering springs?

Hey guys. I have a 90 GXL with eibach springs and KYB shocks. So the car is lowered a little bit. I am planning to buy some 16x7 wheels with 225/50/16 mounted on it. Now my question is would it look too small. ANyone got pictures of their cars with 16 inch wheels lowered? I would like to see it, please send it. Thanks

Stick with 16... I don't think they look small at all. 15s at stock height look just fine, IMO. I can't imagine they'd look that much different with the car lowered a bit.

17s are heavier anyway
