18inch wheel on a 03 civic?

I am planning on getting 18inch rims on a 03 civic. Wondering on how the ride is and what offsets work with 18inch.

to be honest with you, i wouldnt go past 17s on a civic, i have 17 and mildly dropped and i feel the rims can be a little smaller, looks good nonetheless
if you go 18s make sure to order some coilovers to go along with it couse your gona need to be slammed or else your gona be driving the new civic suv 4x4

I went with 18's. No problems and it looks good. And like the guy said maybe get coilovers but that's going to make it look so much nicer in my opinion

Get a camber kit as well so you can get it aligned properly.

Re: 18inch wheel on a 03 civic?

i would go with 18 and have lower profile rubber

i have 17's and have to buy 205/45/17 so the wheel doesn't look so small as opposed to originally having 205/40/17

get 215/35/18 if you go 18s... im on 225/40 and it makes your car sit slightly higher off the ground since its bigger than stock tire specs.. and i basically have no wheel gap.. front almost slightly tucks.. and rear tucks when even just 1 passenger in rear

18s look good on 7th gens but you sacrifice ride comfort and it throwsoff alot of things i would get 16s.
