17rims vs 18rims

Sup I know this is going to sound weird but I was wondering what size and kind of rims to get for my 93 probe gt now I know this is a civic site but I do have a 92 civic also just to let you know. The probetalk is no help that is why i have come to you guys. To give you guys some engine info it 164hp with 154 torque so let me know what you guys think.

My buddy has a 93 probe gt, with 18"s on it. They look nice. 205/35/18 I think is what he has, with a 1.5 inch drop.

IMo probes also look nice with a nice set of chrome rims.

If you look at any online site that sells performance lightened rims, you'll see that they usually come in just a few sizes. Usually 15's and 16's. I think 18's may look good but will kill you in performance if that's what you're looking for...
