You should be fine with 18's if you get the right offset and use a 215/35/18 tyre

just out of interest when you say it scrubs a lot with the 16" is this all the time or just when carrying a load,
I'd love mine to sit like that (have same wheels too) but, since its a daily driver i think scrubbing issues would drive me insane if its constant...

theres millions of speed bumps where i live ... grrrr

My prodrive pff7's with a 8 inch wide rim are offset 51 and dont catch at all and the car sits low.
How low is yours??

Looks like you've already caught it to, as it's not flush over the bottom of the bumper?
