Not sure i'm really in the mood for 19s or 20s...yet, but i would like the handling beefed up a bit. Swaybars will come first, but with the car lowered, will the 18s look even smaller? I don't have the sportpackage either. If anyone has pics and/or opinions that would be great! =)

Should look okay. When you run a bigger rim you usually run a smaller series tire to compensate. 17's 50series 18's 45 series and so on. I plan on lowering mine this spring and running 17's. I will go with a wider tire and rim though.
