Are 18" rims possible?

Is it possible to put 18" rims on the Honda Fit 07 Sport and to also drop the car slightly with these?

Any pics to see what this looks like?

Damn!

That looks great...do you think there will be problems with rubbing/touching?

In one of the galleries, a guy from Indonesia said that he used coil overs to get them to fit.

Can anyone advise on all the components neccessary to acheive this?

I definitely want to go with the 18's.

You can put 20's on a fit.. a few companies make 20X7" rim with 205/22R20 tires which keep the overall wheel height within 2 %

18x7" rims

Does anyone know the name of a few manufacturers of 18x7" alloy rims? I have found one company, Nexus wheels.

Your help appreciated.

I live on a small island were the speed limit is 35km/hr (but we mostly drive at 50km/hr), therefore light wheels for speed are not that important to me so I am going for the visual effect.
