I borrowed a photo posted by @Lotus64 and modified it to show what the car would look like with different diameter wheels.
According to some other threads, 18" wheels will not fit on the rear due to the design of the parking brake.
And of course, different wheels are different, this is just a photographic demo, I'm not saying all wheels of these sizes will fit on the car! And while shrinking the wheel image I was also shrinking the brake image, so in reality the smaller wheels would have less space between the brake and the inside of the wheel.
Possible tire sizes might be 235/45-18F, 235/40-19F, 275/35-19R, 285/35-19R, those are all pretty close to the oem tire diameter.
