Dude go with 16's. I've got 17's on my ride with the polished finish and i think they look DECENT but they are really heavy and im always watching out for potholes and when i park watching the curb. Whenver you hit the slightest bump your literally gonna scream HOLY ****. The feeling is not smooth man. Hopefully when my tires run out ill sell these and go down to 16's. They look much cleaner on civics. Civics aren't meant to be flashy but you can certainly make them look clean.

Bigger is not always better. As I told you on AIM, 15-16's will be what you want. The 18's will make your ride more rough. Your ride will also sit higher. And you will be rubbing. Its just going to get torn up.

I did no such thing!!!
I would never tell someone else to put pink on their teal civic!!! (if i did I was joking)
Back on topic --->
Not to mention that big rims are extremely heavy My rims weigh exactly 12.5lbs each... So I guess if your not trying to go fast then have at it.

i have been doing some thinking.. ton of people told me not to get 18s and chrome. said you hit every pot hole and bump and your tires go by fast... some guy said he went through like 8 pairs of tires lol.. from 18s..
but here what i was thinking.. what about getting 17's and the ones that have the inserts, and can change the inserts to my car color.

OK, gator fan here, this explains a lot...
jk, jk, go noles tho
If you can find 16" or 15" ones with inserts, go with those. 17's seem like they're still a bit too big for civic's, but its your car--do what you want, none of us are going to find you and physically stop you from putting them on your car.

just thinking about putting 18s on there makes me feel like ehhh.... i dont raceee my car.. but i dont want to spend money on tires all the time if i hit pot holes and stuff...

Your wrong they look bad.
OP 18's are just retarded on almost any car that isnt old school baller, reapers post summed it up nicely.
Just go with 16" or 17" idk why all these wannabe ballers throw dubs on a civic, it just makes you all look extremely stupid. Might impress the local ricer club but thats bout it.
