'03 stock wheels?
 
Hey, this is prolly a noob question but can i put my stock '03 wheels on my '99 civic sedan? because they are getting old and i want new rims for my '03.

Yes, but I dont think the tires will be the right size, I think the 7thgen tires are bigger, so it will throw off your speedo of your 99 off a bit.

how much do u think the speedometer will be off? because i really dont feel like buying 4 sets of new tires for my '99 sedan then new rims and tires for my '03 coupe.

Aren't the 2003 Civic EX wheels the same as the 99-00 Si wheels? If so, the Si model from that year calls for a 195/55R15 instead of the 185/65R15 that the 03 uses.

hey i just need a definite yes or no if it'll fit and not effect my speedometer

nvm, i got the results. according to the tire calculator my speedometer will be off roughly around 1.5-2 mph slower.

^^^ the tire calc on this site uses %.... so I believe if it is 1.5% that would mean when youre driving 100, it wuold read 98.5. But it also affect gearing a little as well.
