12" or 15" with PRs.. Can't decide

$

So I have a bit of a dilemma... I can't decide whether I should go with 12 inch or 15 inch. Here's my setup so far to get better insight of what my goals are:

This is in a 2004 Toyota Corolla
Alpine INA-w910
Alpine PXA-H800
Rainbow Germanium 6.5 front stage.. (ripped out the 6x9's in the back)
running it on an old Rockford Fosgate 500X4
I have an Audioque 2200.1, and I'm dead set on buying the Fi Q subwoofer to pair with it.

It will be in a passive radiator box because honestly I like ported better but I don't wanna give up too much space. So I decided to go with this setup because it will be the best of both worlds.

My question is should I go with a 12" or 15"? I listen to mostly Hip-hop, R&B, Trance, and sometimes Dubstep. Will the 15 be a better choice because of the cone space? or will the 12" be better overall? I'm really aiming to get the best SQ but in the same time, I gotta have my bass. Maybe the Fi Q 12 is good enough to push enough air to get that full effect without compromising the quality of the bass.

If I go with 12", I will put two 15" TC sounds passive radiators.
If I go with 15", I will put two 18" TC sounds passive radiators.

it's going to be in a perfectly cubed box.. passives facing sideways. sub facing trunk.

Sound deadened my whole car with Second Skin Damplifier Pro mostly.

Currently I have two 12" Diamond audio D6's in a sealed box.. running 4 gauge.. with yellow top battery in the front. Will be upgrading to 0 gauge.. and doing the big 3 and upgrading my alternator.

The setup I have right now is cool and all but very lacking in the low end and isn't enough power for me.

Any input will be appreciated.. Thank you
