is it your dialy driver? The ride quality of 18"s on a Civic is horrid. I have 17"s on my daily driver and i'm definiely complaining [:@]

also unless you drop it, the 18"s will look RIDICULOUS. off roading anyone? Get the 17"s and make sure to get a drop

How much do they weigh? Remember that adding unsprung weight can only be a bad thing - slower acceleration, harsher ride, etc. I would stay away from anything over 16 lbs.

go with 17" period

let's just say i've got 17's now, and they suck comfort-wise and performance-wise, so now i'm going with 15's, and if you go with stechs and 18's, your car would suck to drive, but it's yours and you'll have to learn the hard way.

get 17's over 18's but honestly I wouldn't go with anything other than 15's or 16's

lightweight 16s FTW

++++++++++1, ive had 17's and the ride quality was awful

DO NOT go 18...please

RE: Ive decided what rims im getting (pics included)
 

yea youre seeing a trend here for a reason. 18's seem unthinable to me. My 17's are barely passable for daily driving. I just test drove a 95 GS-R with stock wheels and it felt great.

oh yeah, try the same wheel and tire setup on the same car, except with a 10/6 kg/mm suspension setup (aka, not fun unless i'm driving the shizzle out of it like a road car)

i'm going for a 50 or 55 series with 15's now, b/c i'm so fed up with my 17's. just get 16's, the size is barely noticable and the ride quality of 16's are superior to 17's.
