If roads are really bad where you live, I would stay with 17's to give you more tire. 18's at the very most. With 17's you want a 45 or 50 sidewall depending, and with 18's you want a 40 sidewall. If you're very low I wouldn't go with too wide of a setup unless you don't mind getting into fender work. But moreover, if you are carting people around alot, I would either raise the car or go with a narrower setup so you can easily avoid rubbing when you hit dips/bumps with full load.

6GA's can fit 19's and 20's, but in your situation I would not recommend it.
