i just got 17" axis wheels . i was 50/50 about 18. since my wheel didn't come in 18, and i cant run 19 my dilema solved itself. wheels are not on the car. though just looking at them w/ toyo's on (215/45/17), I LOVE THEM. i just couldn't afford to pay a little more for 18 tires when needing replacement and less sidewall to protect the wheel. i'd say consider where u live. i may still go to 18s down the road but for now, no regrets for me.
18s look very nice on svts, there's no denying that.
