17x9 on 245/40 on NA power here. it drives better imho than stock wheels on primacys. the key is getting lighter wheels to accommodate for the increase in weight of the added tire size. I am only running about 1lb per corner more than stock wheel/tires. so it feels the same acceleration wise as stock but you are adding more contact patch grip and wider footprint. so quite a bit more grip for when you need it.

I think the ideal size is really 17x8.5 for these cars but very few wheel manufacturers make that size and the ideal offset which should be in the 25-35 range.
