17" or 18" rims question

I was interested in getting rims, particularly the "Nakayama Zoro 10" rims for my 2000 camry. I want to get 18" rims but am not sure if it will fit right or not? Another question that I have is if 17" rims are more preferable for camry's than 18's and if the weight of the rims will affect my car in anyway? I haven't lowered my car yet, but if and when I do, how will it affect the car if I get 17's or 18's? Also, just wondering if this company brand name was any good?

18x8 should be fine if you get the right offset (+40 should work fine). Get 225/40R18 tires and you should not have any rubbing problems.

The weight of the 18's is negligible unless you're racing the vehicle. The difference between 17's and 18's in weight will not be felt.

There will be a little more road noise with the 18's because the tires will be thinner. The ride may be a littler harsher also because there is less sidewall, but I personally prefer that type of setup
