So you'd think that big Bentley would look better with 15" wheels?
ahahhaa...
It all has to do with the size of the car.
Here is my point.
18" wheels (stock OEM wheels) on an E39 BMW M5. Notice the size of the tires...

18" wheels on a Honda Prelude. Notice the size of the tires...

See what I mean? Rubber bands vs some actual tire (on the M5).
And the Bentley Continental GT...19" wheels...but a big car with big tires.
