17's max.

Remember that larger rims add more reciprocating weight which can be detrimental to fuel economy, braking, and handling. They will also be much easier to damage. Parts of the drivetrain may also not be designed to handle much more extra reciprocating weight as it will strain the CV joints and halfshafts.

I still get 31MPG and my aftermarket 18in wheels are stronger and more durable then the factory 1's

Mine are 18X8 with an offset of 38mm. Hope this helps. I have Motegi Racing MR127 wheels.
