The bigger a rim, usually the worse performance in snow and rain. With narrow sidewalls you end up with more of sport tire selection than an all season tire. And those tires are more expensive.
I am thinking the base alloy rim is 16" and the upgrade is 17". My personal preference would be the 16", but my area gets a lot of snow, pot holes are bad, and I don't sport drive.
Check the manual, the door jamb, gas cap cover, there may be some tire info somewhere.

The thing i would worry about the most is the bigger the wheel and tires the more they will cost for new tires. If it was me go to a local salvage yard and buy a set of factory rims and they should have tires that should last you a while. If you go that way here is a website to check out it is. www.car-part.com
There is no such thing as "the best size wheels for a car". A cars wheel size alters minor things like the speedometer because the wheels have to turn less to move a greater distance because of the size difference. If your car is sliding until it has good wheel rotation it was more than likely that where you were trying to accelerate was slippery. I would recommend changing your car tyres tread pattern rather than wheel size. Tyre tread comes in different patterns to compensate for weather abnormalities ( like snow, dirt or ice ).
Hope this helps :)
Bigger the wheel & tires rim,then it will cost more for new tires......Better go to a local dealer...
The bigger a rim
I have a Nissan altima 2008 SE coupe. I bought from the dealer with what it looks like to be 20inch wheels. I want to buy stock wheels and tire because I noticed when I made a complete stop during light snow. The car started to slide until it got a good rotatention speed.
I feel that the current wheels are heavy and my friend advised me to get some 18inch because according to him its the best size for the car.
I just want to know if I would stock size or go with the 18inch.
Also how do I find out my bolt pattern?
