I'm looking for some new wheels for my new Civic. I actually dont have possession of the car yet, but it's scheduled to be here before Sunday.
When I shop for wheels what kind of backspacing/ offset should I look for?
I want to go with an 18 inch wheel, and i dont plan on lowering it or buying any kind of bodykit anytime soon. I'll probably never even put a bodykit on it.
I just dont want my wheels to look like they're poking too far in or out.

Thanks!

You say you're getting an 06?
The Honda Factory Performance wheel kit is really nice. They're dark finish, 7 spoke and 17 or 18 inches (your choice). The dealership will install them with (I think) 215s, maybe 225 on the 18 inch models. Check this thread out: https://www.hondacivicforum.com/m_17..._1/key_/tm.htm

A HCF member's got some good pics of theirs.
