Lol, seriously dude, both those sets look like poo[:'(] There's nothing wrong with 17's on a civic, people are waaaay too opinionated, if YOU think they'll look good then put them on YOUR car

 

I have 205/55 15s and they ride great. I guess you'll have to choose a size and just go with it.

 

i have 17 inch rims, and the ride quality isnt as good as stock, but the wider tires helps me from skidding. though when i sat in a friends all stock em2, i sort of wished my ride was as smooth... but you have to pay to play i guess.

If i could turn back the clock I would go with 16 inch rims, 17 inch rims makes my s tech drop kind of high....
but oh well, they look great.
