I don't really think my 17's ride all that bad... the ride quality is about the same as stock



Lol, you will only ever hear this from people who actually have 17's.





they really are about the same as stock i have 17's with 215/45/17 and the ride is fine if someone swapped out the wheels without me knowing i would never notice from driving it

lol i've got 17's and i am DEFINITELY complainign about ride quality, wish i woulda gone 16's now that i look back. Ride quality is definitely rougher, specially up here on Michigan roads, but with a drop i think 17's look really sick on Civics IMO. Just make sure to get a drop, 17's without it looks silly

addiction2bass's photo gallery 		ya your michigan roads SUCK.LOL even on stock wheels they totaly blow!

but where im at my old 17s where ok.... for anyone saying ya dont notice a difference i also call BS..... or you just cannt feel the road! but for me.... the 17s are well worth the ride quality suffered as long as your roads are in decent shape! if i lived in michigan it would definatly be 16s as the largest! thiers way to much nasty roads!!!!! and loud at that!
