There is no "best". Avoid 19s, they are too large in diameter for proper tire fitment.

I thought this thread was useful:

I'm personally going for some dub sized spinners.

As I mentioned in the PM, post up your budget for both wheels and tires. After knowing that, people can help you out.

Keep in mind the larger the rim you go, the more the tires will cost you. So if price is a concern, I would go with 17's (IMO its a better size for the FD anyways).
