No smaller than 18's, I would suggest 19's at the smallest

The power or fuel economy lost by bigger rims is slim honestly. Take the much better looks of a bigger rim over the loss in the other categories

I went from 16's to 18's and haven't noticed any mpg loss. I did however go from the very heavy steel wheel/stock tire to a lightweight aluminum rim/low profile. Not sure how the stock alloys weigh up.
