Default how are the roads over there? keep in mind that generally, 18's bend easier. also
keep in mind the weight, you don't want a heavy 18 inch rim, but you don't want something that'll bend either. Personally, I love the look of bigger rims, and hope to get some 19's, whenever i have the money.

If you go 18, go forged or 3-piece if you want to be nyc compatible!

Default I am from Toronto as well...I am sure you won't have fun on Queen St...
But, if I were you I would still go for 18" rims. It looks more "right" on the car. Just make sure you get strong rims like Nick has suggested.
