Default Looking at 18's

I am looking at these rims in particular. Any opinions? They are going on a gray 2007 Civic EX.

It'll probably ride like complete *** with those wheels, but whatever tickles your pickle

Wow. Thoughs are really nice wheel and that color I think would go really nice with gray. But im with forty, I would go for a 17" and a bit thicker tire. The 07s are pretty big so you will be fine with a 17" tire in a thicker tire without any rubbing issuse.

Even 17s are rough, if u hit a decent pothole the tire will blow up. I am going to get rid of my 17's and get some 16's or 15's

I just put 17" Motegi Traklites on my ride. LOVE them! So, I will definately say Motegi is a great product!

also, figure you can put 17" rims on it without any hassle, honda offers the 07 civic EX with 17" as an option
