You're not, I really like the stock wheels on the new EX civics, I think they look alot better than some of the aftermarket sets, just because they're aftermarket doesnt mean they're gonna look better , in my opinion.

Lose the wheels and get the mirrors and door handles painted, and you'll have a decent starting point. Welcome to the site.

yeah either get some nice OEM wheels, or some aftermarket ones, with good tires. also, paint the doorhandles and stuff, little things like that really make a difference overall. just look around the site for a lil bit and you will figure out what you want. welcome.

damn, those wheels were cool in the 80s lol.


if its gonna be a family vehicle, keep the suspension stock. last thing you want is worrying about lowering too much and scraping, camber wear on tires, etc etc. if money is tight, do DIY simple mods first; diy headlights, tb bypass, etc. check out the DIY section. its basically free mods that can mean a lot to you.



IF that were my car, i would swap wheels. but i would wear the tires out on those first or just mount them on another set of rims.
-then tint the back 3 windows
-stereo equipment

well, for consolation those wheels are like those from a Saab, so it can't be too bad if you dress the whole car up.

Actually those wheels were cool when the 93 mustang came out (3-spoke), until late 90s they sorta died.
