Having unique wheels is what sets you apart form the rest, MOMO is a very good wheel comapny and have great products. Go for what you like and forget the rest, it's not their car.

I've ran oldskool rims on my cars for the uniqueness of it and what's funny is that the wheel industry here in SoCal is going back to the old skool look, because all the rims now look all the same.

Stay with your choice and be different. But I do think the 50 series wheel is too big, 38mm should work out fine for ya. Peace and best of luck with your wheel hunt.
