they'll fit, but there will be pretty harsh rubbing issues. Plus, your car will have a monster truck stance

with a rim that big I dont think you will be able to go 8 inches wide, I may be wrong though because I never have and never will put rims that rediculously big on a civic

well i put that rediculously big wheels on my car. Don't go past 7.5thats what i have and i had to cut the lip of the rear wheel wells. and u will rub with air when doing u turns and you won't be able to drive with it pancaked. thats the right tire size.

what kind of air ride u getting .. u know u can't put bags on a civic right. I wouldn't even suggest the air bag struts won't sit low. air rods the way to go...

yes, you can put bags on civic. It will have cantilever in back with wheel tubs in back, bags on top of upper control arms in front. and i already know you cant drive pancaked, kinda obvious.

This is not my car, just showing how civic can be bagged:

nope. probably drive it about 2-3 days a week also. This isnt the first vehicle i have had bagged, just first civic. Trucks are lot easier to get lower than cars. But it will work

Default RE: 19 inch wheels

are u goin to cut out the wheel wells also like he did. thats some crazy modifying. why not just use air rods less air to fill and don't break as easy as bags. my friend had bags on his cougar he had to replace his bags or atleast one of them every year.

when i had 18's and pancaked it i could still drive straight with nothing rubbing now with the 19's if i drop it to close it will rub the tire. I love driving and bangin switchs so it is annoying..
