Default What's the best size rims

What would be the best size rims for a civic. I was thinking going with 16". 15" is too small and it's not like I'm going dragging. But are there problems with traction and potholes if I were to get 17"?
Anybody have experience?

I personally prefer 16's for the same reasons you mentioned.

17's seem too big, and you'll need a thinner tire to keep from rubbing if you're lowered most of the time.

And 15's seem a bit too small, but for hte right wheel/price I'd be able to live with rockin them. No drawbacks to them though as I have nothing negative to say other than they're a bit small for my taste. Tires are cheaper though
