So meaning your looking in the 18 in range? Is that safe to assume? I would definitely go with 18s vice 19s or even 20s. You'll gave more control of your vehicle while driving and it won't feel so hard steering and turning. I would check fleabay for 18x8.5 18x9.5 35/38et, 5x112. As for rubber f 225/40/18 r 255/35/18. Get a midrange cost tires if you could, but being that winter is here I'd wait til spring to mount and break the out.
just my humble opinion

I would partially agree with 2MERKS in that 18" would give the best mix of smooth ride and good handling. But I would suggest if you want staggered 18x7.5 f 225/40R18 and 18x8.5 r 255/35R18, or 18x8 if you want all wheels same
