i just looked at your car, i agree those 17s did look big, i think bigger rims on a hatch civic look too big but i think on meades and jeremy's they would look good.

you got a coupe tho, 15s would look super small and 16s would look small yet
Yep, Car & Driver did a comparison thing with every tire size on a Golf from 14s to 19s if I remember right. The point of diminishing returns in terms of grip is 17 inches, and overall, the smaller the tire, the quicker the 0-60 time. Has to do with the unsprung mass of larger rims and tires.
Look up Child's EG build. He's rocking Konig 15s, they fill the wells.

thats when ya go and calibrate it!
youre kidding right??
im rocking 15's on my ej6 and they look pretty awesome..
they are lightweight and the handling couldnt be better
(just my 2cents, not trying to be offensive)
95coupe, do what you please with your car.
ITS YOURS AND NO ONE ELSE'S!!
if YOU eff it up it's YOUR mistake to look at everyday.
i like what youve done so far (minus the interior)
and you still have a ways to go. but its looking like good
progress to me, keep it up and keep it clean
impo do not follow what your buddy here is telling you
to do, i know that most members here will agree that he belongs
on the fast and the furious just like all the other rice-buckets.
i know UCC probably wants to sock him in the teeth right about now lol
18's are horrible to look at when youre rockin the chrome,
it just looks soooooo beaner lmao or as my gf and i call it "paisa"
and btw those headlights are a copycat of audi lights,
fyi - civics arent european!!!!!
theyre asian fool.
arigatō.

I am usually a fan of larger rims, I do like big rims on luxury cars... But Civics are not meant for 18+ (Civic's 7th Gen Plus may be a different story)
The only thing that should be 18+ is Miley Cyrus not Civic Rims....
This is an example of a "RESPECTABLE" Civic that has proper fitting rims.... And they have Chrome/Polished lips
OR you could just get proper fitting wheels that don't look stupid and ride like cr**
couldnt be more true bro.
^^thats a sexy hatch. b***h is SLAMMED!!!! love itThis is an example of a "RESPECTABLE" Civic that has proper fitting rims.... And they have Chrome/Polished lips

this is a civic website... don't talk to me about rice. show me one good sounding civic exhaust then we'll talk about rice. Those rims above are tiny as hell.. that's obvious.Dude you cracked me up a few times in this... Love it... You hit so much dead on the money...

i'm here to watch a friends build because im not home to see it.
not here to argue with you sorry people with confused minds. thanks guys.
No one is arguing but you, your the one that had said you don't like civics so guess your opinion on what is good or not doesn't yield any help....
But I do love how NOW you change your tone when someone such as myself proves a point that smaller wheels are better....
So lets keep this on track....
Op what's the next project or change?
