18's seem like a 'show' application size. if i were to get rims, i would get 17's because i think it fits well enough on my civic. but i would go for 18's depending on color/brand/type of rim.
I guess it is opinion. When I got 17s they looked really good and big. When I got a body kit and drop they started looking tiny.
I should of said... if you plan on getting a body kit/lip kit and drop... dont go smaller then 18s.

Rep Power: 303 Rims from ebay isn't bad at all, since ur buying brandnew rims, you won't have any problems with them. Just throw in some good tires and you are set for about 7~800 bucks

painting stock hubs black...well personally i wouldn't hahaha but i have seen some that have and it looks okay
dont be embarassed to ride on hubbies 
but you have many other choices besides eBay when looking for wheels. www.wheelmax.com for example, has very cheap prices for wheels (including the tires) BUT you do get what you pay for.
