Go ahead and lower your car and let me know if it rubs over bumps  18"+ wheels are heavy, which has a negative effect on performance. Some people like the big wheels though, so good for you guys. Personally I would not go bigger than 17" because it allows a larger profile tire - which makes for a better ride, and because it looks good and isn't a large burden on the car to rotate.
