Im looking to buy some winter rims. I've found some steelies, 15" were on 2007 Civic Ex. I think the 8th gen and the 9th gen civics share the same bolt patterns but I don't know if they share the same centre bore size. Anyone know?
Thanks in advance for your time.

Thanks, I went to check them out and they were a no go. The tires had way less tread than I was led to believe. I'll keep looking for OEM stealies or go with the hubcentric rims and new winter shoes.

Since I won't need the winters until late Dec. or early Jan. I'll keep looking.
Thanks for your input.

The junkyards want almost new prices for their stuff, a lot of them want to tack on a core charge as well. Not much info as the model is too new... but considering it is still using the R18 and likely the same transmissions I would think that 8th gen stuff would work.
What size wheels came on your EX-L ??
For the EX-L it shows 16", the center caps are the exact same part # as the ones I recently got for my 5 spoke LX-S wheels for my 2010.
Not sure about going with a smaller rim though

Smaller rims for the winters usually means a savings on tires. I want skinnier tires to go through the snow better. Good to know about the part #, thanks.
