The 18s have resulted in a far firmer ride. I haven't been pushing the car too hard lately, as the rears are rather smooth from an academy day at Heyford academy. I would say that other than the firmer ride, handling is pretty similar (perhaps a little more understeer). I think that the 18s are of comparable or lower weight than the stock wheels (rim+tyre), so no acceleration impact.

The HKS was second-hand from AmuseBoy, the wheels and tyres were second-hand through the forum as well (sourced in the UK I believe). The Aus stuff was from a board member in Australia. The K&N airfilter, horns, etc are UK over-the-counter. The Muz stuff is from Muz - also in Australia. The roof well mat and window protector are not required with a glass rear window.

Here's a photo with the 18s:
