...TSW makes wheels that will fit, but if you go up to 18 you MIGHT experience rubbing and most likely when you turn, if you get really low profile tires to compensate for the rim size, you will have a really bad ride, plus your rims will be most susceptible to damage from bumps in the road, railroad tracks and things like that. I wouldn't go past 17's, they look very good and the difference is minimal, but you'll have better protection that way, and the ride quality and road noise will be better.
Also, forgeline and hre make wheels that look very awesome (i prefer hre) but they run from 800 to something like 1300 per wheel depending on size.
