It depends on what you want - you didn't give us any details or requirements.

A 17X9 will cost a lot less in terms of both the rims AND the tires. You will also be much less likely to have any rubbing issues. A 17X9 will fit a 255/40-17 beautifully without rubbing or modifications while staying cheap. An 18 will look a little better due to being bigger, so it depends on your preferences.
