Default Do you have 18's?

I just put 18's on my 00 civic and if anyone has pictures of a civic with 18" wheels and is also dropped can you paste a picture and specify how low the car was dropped?Please!! Its always easier when you see the finished procuct first or atleast have an idea of what it looks like. Thank You!

I dont think you'll see too many dropped civics with 18's. Unless im mistaken 18's barely clear the wheel well as it is, lowering would cause the front tires to rub against the wheel well...

I beg to differ. I have 18's but I wish I had not bought them. I live in NY and there are potholes everywhere. I already bent the rims. I'm looking to get new rims, maybe 17's but leaning towards 16's.

I don't think it's a good idea to put 18's. There are two pics, one with stock and the other with 18's. Even though it looks good but it doesn't ride good though.

yes i think 18s are a little to big for a civic, 17s would look just as good, if not better..if u stay with the 18s get some pics up

The Civic I just bought has 18's and the rub every once in a while when I hit a bump. I have no idea how low my civic is lowered, but it is low. I haven't had any problems with it rubbing when taking sharp turns or anything, just the occasional pothole. I'll try to get a few pics up.
