I would stick with 18in wheels mainly because 19in wheels might be too much of an agressive fitment. Also, big rims for a car such as that might minimize the performance of the vehicle.
However, if you aren't looking much for performance, more on the lines of looks, try going with 19in wheels; however I wouldn't recommened it. Just my .02.

where in oakland do you live at? some of the oakland roads are horrible... i live in alameda and when i drive my car.. and my car has 19s i get really scared... but for me i love how 19's looks.. you just have to be careful.. 18's are great for performance but quite looks... i say get 19's
On a normal smooth road though, not much difference.
