go 18's
you can fit a 225/40-18 or a 225/35-18
the 40 series will keep you right around the stock diameter and the 35 will be smaller than what you have at the moment, screwing with your speedo and odometers.
17's are just one inch bigger than stock so if you want some rims go 18 that is my OPINION, if you want to race then people will say get some light 17s or stick with 16, and get rota slipstreams.
if ur tires are tucked at the moment you probably want to go with the 35 series tire since im not sure about what offset rims you are going to have... I think the correct offset is +45mm
Anyway, perfect size is 225/40-18 if ur going 18's.
hope that helps.
