Hello.. I am just wondering how 18s look like on a 1.5" dropped civic... because I am planning to buy 18s and I have no idea what it is gonna look like on my car (1.5" dropped) and whether if its gonna have a big gap between the fender and my wheels .. can anybody post a pic with 18s on 1.5" dropped? Please!

If not, I would rather get 19s but then, isn't gonna make my car higher since I don't have a kit yet? and they're pretty big wheels.. I will not have a kit for like 4 months or so :-X coz I gotta pay other stuff.. bills and etc. or my other choice, I will get a new set of springs that will drop my car atleast 2" and get 18s..

Please feel free to post the pic with 1.5" dropped on 18s... This will help for me to decide Thank You!!!

LOL that's what i thought too. but I saw civicchic's ride and other's ride with 19s.. I had a second thought of getting 19s LOL they said there's no problem at all.. their car is dropped 1.5" no problem at all.. and some are 2" with 19s don't know how they did that LOL....

Here is my old 7th gen with 18X7" wheels and 215/35-18 tires. Its dropped on H&R Sport springs with Koni shocks. It was about an 1.5" drop.

i got 18's with a 3 in drop. to me thats perfect but not low enuff for me. the fender is right with the top of the tire. i wanna be where my fender is coverin the whole tire and lines up with the rim. 18's and a 3 in drop is perfect. a 1.5 in drop isnt enuff. you gonna have a huge wheel gap. we dont let friends drive wheel gap. hahahahah

hmmm yea.. 1sikcivik I wish mah car is like urs.. 3 inch drop with 19s and the rims LOL...

666 thanks for the pic.. it really helped!! thanks again bro.. neways, I kindah don't want my wheels to be that big in such way that they can almost touch my fender.. u know what I mean.. coz whenever I go to school everyday there's a big *** hump like hell in a freeway (and that's the nearest way.. 20 mins to go to school) that will definitely *** up my fender if I have 19s.. but then at the same time... fender gaps are my pet peeves... I hate them LOL! so I'm stucked in the middle...

18s on 1.5" dropped also looks good to me, but 19s on 1.5" looks better to me LOL.. and if I have a 3" dropped with 19s... it's over! I will be the one in the city/school that have 19s on 3" dropped civic LOL..

thanks again 666!

Thanks pnoiracer!

I believe my tire size is 215/40/18

I had the same problem with the sound but I just took my car back to the place that installed them and they fixed it up for me. I really dont know what it was???

No problem bro...

Thanks for the reply...

Hmmm... damn how much did you pay to fix it? coz I just installed my springs by myself and with the help of a friend.... how much did you pay? some shops here are rip off.. they charge u too much... (EX. $200 for the installation of my sport springs.. others are $160)

**** I dont remember how much it cost me. The place I bought them from gave me a good deal to install them and then when I noticed that noise they fixed it for free. Good Luck with it though.
