the only thing is you ride around constintly avoiding rails, rocks, and anything that can bend the rim.

17's just look to small to me. I think I'm gonna go with the 18's. I talked to a guy today that had 18's and it was dropped with springs and they didn't rub at all. Also saw one with coilovers that don't rub at all. I'm going with the 18's they just fill that wheel well better. I'm gonna get a crappy ride either way, right?

If you put 18s on your car just make sure you get the proper offset. If the place that's selling to you knows their stuff than you shouldn't rub or have a problem. We have 35 series Nitto 555s on our shop/show car and it doesn't ride as bad as everyone makes it out to be. A lot of the time people go with cheap tires and that's why the ride tends to suck.

I am gonna go with 18's. They just look so much better to me. I know I'm not gonna race my car or anything. It's a freaking automatic, which really sucks.

no civic needs 18"s, unless its a straight up show car.
