MY advice (worth every penny you've paid} is to find a set of used 16"ers. You'll notice a distinct handling improvement even with those, over the 15's. If you want MORE (if a little is good, a lot is great!) then try some 17's. 16's will compromise the ride a little, but the handling benefit is well worth it. 17's over 16's, less marginal handling benefit, but still probably a decent improvement. I've got a Viggen, and the 17's only bother me 10 to 20% of the time because of the harshness. Different rubber will also make a noticeable difference, some sidewalls, of the same ratio, are much stiffer than others. If I lived in Florida, I might consider 18's, but probably not even then.
