I like the new wheels. They are a bit extreme, but they do look sweet. There is always a "balance" to be reached between form and function. Always. And that "balance" is totally up to you.
People ride in all kinds of "extreme" stanced vehicles....because to them, form reigns supreme. It's all about form, style, and "the scene". I get it.
I recently upgraded the 16" steel wheels and hub cabs on my 2010 Accord. I went with 18" OEM rims with a matte black powder coat finish. I love them. But my car is used for traveling all over the country...dragging my kid and his bike to BMX races. Function was a HUGE variable in my equation. Form played a smaller role, but I still wanted something better than those factory steelies and [censored] wheel covers.
Go with what you like. Just make sure you like it and understand the consequences of leaning so heavily towards form.
Here's my car now:
