Help on wheels & tires

I bought a 2001 Civic LX just for commuting to work, but through this website I see some pretty nice Civics. I'm not totally hooked - yet - but I would like to buy some cool wheels and wider tires without doing other modifications. In other words I would just like to bolt on the wheels and drive. Would appreciate any recommendations. I am thinking along the lines of 215/40/17s. Lowering kits may follow and if I get really addicted, who knows what will follow.

Thanks.Text

well if you might not be lowering..some 16's would be a better choice. Also they are more comfortable and less prone to damage from potholes and such...

look around at

Whalen Tire
The Tire Rack
Wheelmax.comDiscount tire direct

For IDeas and pricing..

Cheers
