18s wont jack your suspension....long as you keep the weight down and dont exceed what your rims weigh now with tires. I went with Konig TunerII's on my Legend....and while they looked so cool....my god they were some work......especially since I went chrome....looking back...I wished I woulda gotten the 17s instead...more tire options and you can get a larger sidewall (hard to do with the 18s) which helps maintain a smoother ride....the 18s will have a pretty small sidewall so your ride quality will suffer.

it's going to look weird with 17's or 18's without some form of a drop, just my opinion though.

no with 17's it looks kinda weird not dropped. but with 18's you wouldnt really need to drop it

Go 18's or even 19's.... First I had 17's, then 18's, now 19's.... They fill in the fenderwells sooo much better bro. Youre definately gonna wanna lower it if you get 18's+

17's will have a better ride quality b/c of more rubber and will look the best with no lowering needed... 18's will look ok, ride quality will start to suffer a little and if you go with the same DIA wheel, you wont need to lower it, but with the smaller tires, it will look a hair odd b/c of the big wheel well and smal tires... but if it was me, id DEF go with 18's+...

we have the same car, 6th gen sedan, and i have 18's on it right now, and theres like hella room, between the car and tires, could use a drop, but that's just for looks, handling is fine for me, but if i did have money , i'd drop my car in a heartbeat, haha
