More aggressive? Which would look more aggressive on an '02 civic: An 18'' wheel w/ 35 series tire and tein s tech's or a 17'' wheel / 45 series tire and tein s tech's? Just let me know cuz I bout to order the 18'' wheels but I am hesitating on what I should do. If anyone has a pic of their whip w/ either setup please post it so I can get an idea.

There are many variables here: 18's will most likely look more "aggressive" but with a tire that thin the ride will SUCK (not to mention bent rims) and the wheels are heavier so the car will have slower acceleration. 17"s look smaller but the ride is way better and are slightly lighter so acceleration isn't as bad as it is w/ 18's.
if you DO get 18's do it right and get bigger brakes!

Rep Power: 380 Coming from a more compeditive background I personally think a nice set of 15X7's with wide tires (215-225) looks the most "agressive", as the car actually looks like something that sees track use. 17's and 18's on this car just look like "bling" to me. And yes I have 17's for street use and 15's for when I compete.

Rep Power: 239 U gotta realize one thing bout me.....Yeah I'll get an intake <----just to say I have one, I already have exhaust and headers. I am not looking for a fast whip (if I was I would not have bought a civic). What I am looking for is something more appealing to the eye aka a head turner. So my question to all you 7th gen owners out there is: What makes a 7th gen more appealing when it comes to wheels or exterior add-ons? <---- act like you do not own a civic but what would cause your head to turn if one of our whips passed by say on the interstate or just crusin' around that would cuz you too look at your buddy the next day and say "Have you seen that civic that has.......its nice as hell"? I need ideas cuz I am workin' on my whip and not lookin' for some much the go but more the show on a daily driver.

Rep Power: 243 i would just get bolt-ons, 17's, a drop, and a nice sound system
if u get a drop make sure the front is lower than the rear b/c the rear will sag and make them level.... if you buy them the same ull look like u have fat asses in the back
