Brian is the 18’s going to corner as well as the 20’s? Do you actually get better gas mileage because of the smaller rim rotation?
If general street cornering performance is the goal, I probably would not recommend downsizing, unless you're racing and reaching into the realm of optimizing vehicle dynamics and unsprung mass / suspension recovery. The downsize will get you a taller sidewall, which isn't going to help the corning for most in a daily driver setup. I would go up up in wheel diameter.

The impact in 'range' aka-mileage from wheel weight is not as big as you'd think. The aero of the wheel, the offset, and width of the tires will have more 'range' impact than weight - the weight is mostly impacting acceleration and deceleration and vehicle dynamics
