depends on how much you wanna drop your car...i think if you go lower than 2inches then go with 15's but above 2inches go for 16's.....just look at the si rims i think they are the perfect size for a EK

yep, Si wheels are 15's. so are Fat Fives, LS Mesh, and Blades.

16's look good, but 15's can look just as nice, plus they're cheaper and lighter.

si rims = 15's

16's look better on a civic imo but 15's are ideal. goodluck with your choice
i believe these are 16
and these are definitly 15's

if it was me i would go for 17" but as they dont seem to be an option i would have to say 16" they will fill the arches out better and you will be able to sit the car on them better

16s with low profile tire almost = same diameter as stock rims with the Michelins.

I say 15s. They fit the civic well, plus tire options are more abundant for fifteen inchers.

wow, thanks for the input everybody. I have also been looking for a nice set of rims, and what I have my eyes is the 16" Rota GT3 in gunmetal with a polished lip, Next paycheck and their mine.
