18 inch rims?
Everyone I've asked including guys at tires stores etc.. have told me that 17 inch rims are the largest rim that will fit a civic. Well I couldn't help but notice alot of guys here at the website that are rollin on 18's. Is there alot of modifications that must be donw to fit 18 inch rims on a 01 civic?

I have 18" wheels with 225/40/18
and I don't have any trouble except that it sits it up off the ground more.

Rep Power: 0 yea some guy tried to tell me 18's were too big and that i'd have to roll the fender. the guy was totally wrong. 18's with 215/40's are about the same as factory rims and tires, if you think that is too big go with 215/35. well anyway, i still have plenty of space with my 18's. just use the tire calculator on this website, it'll proove everything.

Rep Power: 0 some guys at tire rack told me that we could fit up to a 19 well but it would definitly rub. The ones i'm getting are 18 x 7 1/2, these will fit easy on the car.

Rep Power: 0 You can get 19s and still drop it no more than 1.5 inches[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] The Wings West Kit is on 19s with the Eibach Pro Kit[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
