17, if you want your wheels/suspension/teeth to last for a while.

Well, youre going to get both answers, 17's and 18's, based on what people have, so your not going to get an overwhleming answer one way or the other. Just go with what you like. I like 17's with more rubber and more comfort. Some want less rubber because it looks "cooler" Ask yourself, not us... Know what im sayin?

Depends on what you plan on doing w/ your ride. For events I really like my 18 inch bBist wheels, but for everyday driving and the commuting on CA freeways, my 17s work best.

I went with 18" PIAA Sport mesh with Yokohama spec 2 tires. I like it alot but the ride is pretty stiff, especially with the TRD springs and shocks.
