I have a 2000 528i with sports package and 17" wheels. I'm thinking of putting 18's on, but I am worried about the car looking raised up. I know there will be a little less rubber, but will one half an inch make a difference? I don't want to pay to lower the car with new springs and the like.

Thoughts and opinions are much appreciated.
