2nd Generation 17" or 18"

Just wanted to get opinions on what rim size would you recommend for a gen2 that adds looks and performance as well

I'm thinkin of going for either a 17" or an 18"

What tire size would you recommend for these rim sizes?

You can add looks but you're not gonna add performance with 17's. 17's and especially 18's are just too damned big and heavy for that car.

If I was looking for performance I'd do 15's. If I wanted looks with a little less performance I'd go with 16's.
