Well, if you're only interested in looks, do what you want... If you want performance, start with this thread .

I went with 17" SSRs.
If you drive it hard, you probably want 17"s, but it's purely up to you!
Find what you like, my main suggestion is just don't get something that weighs a ton!
If the roads around you are rough, there's another reason to stay with 17"s, more rubber before your rim hits (and bends!)

I went with 17s because I think its a good compromise between looks and performance.
