If you're going to buy new wheels, you might consider going to 19's. It'll definitely improve the look of your car.

stick with 18" if you are not going to lower the car. 19' for sure if you do plan or have already dropped the car! 19" rims will still allow enough rubber for those roads. Have the same issues in IL

18 is too small. Go 19 with different rims (maybe TE37s even though they are damn expensive...
)

Those will look like 17s. Go at least 19s.

18"s are fine.
I have 18"s, and they have a great balance of comfort and sport, and tires will last a little longer and be less expensive to replace. Also helps with gas mileage.
I did drop it with Eibach springs, though...
