Default 17's or 18's?

So I'm thinkin I'm gonna save up for some Volk LE or TE-37's but I dont know whether to get 17's or 18's and have no idea about what the optimal width is. I'm definitely still open to other suggestions besides LE-37's and TE-37's. Anyone got a setup they'd like to recommend? I'd also like not to have to spend more than I have to for a nice setup.

My .02. 18's definitely look better period. 17's are the best all round option and I believe 225's and 255's are the perfect tires for this car on 7.5& 9" rims respectively.

Yep, 17's are lighter so they perform better, but 18's definitely look better. I would also recommend 225 up front and 255 in the rear on anything from 7"-9" widths for the front and rear.
