What wheels should I get
Heyo, I got a pretty stock 03 civic ex and was wondering what kinda wheels I should put on it that has both style and is fun to drive in. (Doesn't have to have performance gain but preferable). It's got 5 lugs on it. Pretty sure I have a 15 by 6 wheel.

yep, that. I'm willing to bet a lug conversion happened (or at least lug converting spacers/lug adapters) are on the car, and highly likely 5x114.3 if so.
That said, what are you looking for in wheels? Color? 6-12 skinny spokes? 4-6 fat spokes? spokes that seem to split off halfway through? A metric crap ton of spokes (google: dayton wire rims)?
Do you wanna increase rim diameter to 16, 17, 18, 19, or even 20's?
lotsa choices out there, gotta narrow it down to what kinda stuff you want on your car

all personal taste at this point buddy. I personally liked 17's on my 2002. I had Buddy Club P1 Racing SF's on mine, 17x7 rims, 215/45-17 tires. They were skinny 7-spoke rims, lightweight (17's weighed 17.5lbs each without tires), gunmetal in color, which went well with the dark blue of my car.
Do you have a budget in mind? I can give you recommendations of 17's ranging anywhere from crappy $100/rim to super gucci ones that go for upwards of $1000/rim
give us a budget and color and we'll see what we have to work with.

I can't believe I'm so dumb. It has 4, you guys were correct. But it's got, I'm thinking stock steels with hubcaps on it. One of the wheels were damaged so I got another steel replacement.
