Trying to determine what would look better - 17s or 18s on the 06. Thoughts? Help? The 16s look small on the new body style IMHO...

 

17" are usually just perfect on a civic, but now with the new body style its bigger, so i think 18" would look pretty good on it

 

^ what eh said. The wheel wells on the new civs are bigger. I think they would look pretty shibby with 18's... well tasteful ones in this case.

 

Here is a nice set of 18's on a new civic:

blah, you want performance or looks?!

 

Actually...I'm looking for a little of both. I want it to look good, but I only want performance from the perspective of functionality. In other words, I want it to look good, and work too (i.e. no rubbing)!

Thanks for all the advice...and Rem thanks for the pic (that helps too!)

 

18x7.5s right???

 

I think I put on 8" wides... i dunno. Go play around on www.tirerack.com . Thats where I got it from.

 

Oh...and one other question: How do I find out what the bolt pattern is? I see things like 5x100, and I'm assuming the 5 means the number of bolts, and I think the 100 is the distance in MM between two opposing bolts...but I'm not sure.

Can someone clue me in...

 

yup. But what tirerack.com shows you for your car is perfect with your car.
