Im trying to decide between some 17s & 18s. Im not sure what will look better and if I was wondering how much I can drop the car I will know i have to remove the mud guards but that doesn't matter.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

well if you are just going for looks then get the 18's

I'de go for 17's myself. 17's with a little more rubber than usual. Kinda fill out the wheel well a little more. Then a drop of course. I think it has the best combination of looks and performance. That is if you get a reasonably light wheel.

Yeah get the 18's cause performance aint coming our way soon.

Well, I know we all have tons of money, but I got the 17's to save on some tires in the future. Kinda saves more money for the turbo (some day, my HKS will come....) With the Sportlines on, I have been totally happy.

well i have 17's myself cause i care more about performance but it sounds like you just want what looks better so then go with the 18's.

Go with 18" it will look better. You can also drop the car 2"

Just weigh the pro's and con's

18's - make u slower (but not by much...believe me!)
they look nicer
tires are slightly more expensive
Ride might suffer

17's - Cheaper
Still look kinda nice
Tires a bit cheaper
Ride still might suffer just a bit


Ride and speed suffer regardless from goin from 15's to 17's or 18's
Make your own choice. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

I think you should just get 19" that will be the best for you.

16" 's [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

18's w/ 40 series tires,,,,,,,you get the looksbut still dont suffer from harsh ride
drop it 1-2"......and your set....
personally,, performance wise,,,not enough to even think about......plus we drive civics.....who cares.

Looks go for 18's. Race go for 16's. Stuck between the two get the 17's. Wanna be extreme go with 19's if your still not sure stay with stock.

No matter what they say...size does matter to the ladies... They love the 18's! The only problem is their performance leaves alot to be desired.

Pure looks=18's
A little more performance, but also looks=17's

GreenVenom

i have 18's and i wish that i would have gotten 19's!!! but as for performance 17's and 18's are just fine 18's look nicer and you can find some that don't weight much at all!!! think about it yea mustangs have more power but they run with 18's too. just b/c they're bigger doesn mean they weigh more!! 18's all the way!!!

wh3nw0rdsesc4pe

get 10's with some spokes so i can laugh at you.....again....j/k

GSTARR

Not to sound like an echo but.....16 or 17's if you want performance...18's for looks.
I have 18's and personally I like them better.

LadySmiles

Thanks for all the help. My boyfriend said if I got 18's then would have a bunch of problems. I think im gonna go with 18's still not quite positive but whatever I got like a month to figure it out (that's when the tax refund is coming ). I do know that im gonna get some white Racing Hart M 7000 Evo's though. So at least i know one thing!!!!![IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] That's good right??[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

i got 18s because they're something nice too look at. i like pulling up somewhere and having everybody stare at my wheels.

fourkilos

i just put a 17" racing hart z5000.... is it just me or does it seem like my gas is getting eaten up faster??? and also the milage goes up fater too?? just wondering.. is it just me??[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

Perfectcivic
