For proper fitment with any aftermarket wheels/tires, be sure the installer has an updated wheel/tire spacing guide (or you have the table for the cruze if doing yourself) Springs are usually included in these guides.
This is a general rule for all cars but.. Im sure other people can recommend what fits and looks good.
Personally, I would go 18'' but your fuel econ. will probably decline slightly. Depends on the weight of the wheels, aftermarket ones are usually much lighter than stock (size being equal), forged or not, so u have a good shot at actually not losing unsprung weight with 18s themselves, depending on how wide you go. Still, can't go wrong with 17s.
If you want to be outside the fender slightly, spacers would IMO be better than wide wheels/tires.
I would also go with black wheels; i love black wheels (satin black) on blue cars.
With wheels/tires and lowering springs, be mindful of how your ride is gonna change- handle slightly better yes, but you will no longer be able to just "cruze" over speedbumps.
Just something to keep in mind. Also, make sure to get a 4 wheel ALIGNMENT ~7 days after the springs/wheels/tires are installed. (to let the springs settle/break in)
Also, make sure color and wheel size are what YOU want
