Default 18"s to big?

Are 18" wheels to big for a 1st gen talon awd? I was told not to go bigger than 17".

Not too sure about the width. Make sure the bolt pattern is right

i dont think i would go with 20"s maybe 18". Im not out for top speed mainly just 0-60type stuff. Im in high school and my car is already the highest performing there. I just want to add a little style to it

18s 19s will fit fine depending on tire. 20s needs some small custom work. 20s are ugly anyway I say no bigger than 18s on these cars is good
