Wheels
Hi. I have just bought a 99 civic hatchback. I want it slammed on big wheels! but i still want it to be practical! so i was wondering if anyone knows the best drop, and wheels size to go for. cheers

RE: Wheels
When you say slammed & big wheels what are you thinking about doing? How practicle? Daily driver?
|
RE: Wheels
yea, eg. minimal scrubbage with maybe 2 people in the back. was thinkin no bigger than 18's, or would 17's be the best bet?
|
RE: Wheels
Ive found that 17's with a little drop do the job nicely
|
RE: Wheels
cool, cool! well al be happy with that! how low have you gone with them?? and what, if any scrubbing do you get?
|
RE: Wheels
Ive never dropped a car. My friend has tho. Im waiting to get a body kit before I drop mine
|
RE: Wheels
ryt. Has anyone got a lowered civic hatchback on 17's???? just wondering what the scrubbing is like before i go ahead! cheers
|
RE: Wheels
Not a hatch, but it's lowered on 17's

RE: Wheels
If your car is a daily driven car & looking for practicality, I wouldn't recommend lowering the car that low. You'll run into some problems as time goes by.
I'd say put the 17" rims & get the Neuspeed sports springs. The drop is about 1.75". It would still look pretty low & still pretty practical. You should eliminate most of the fender gaps with those sports springs. The ride quality is also pretty close to stock. That's my opinion. |

If I had a dollar for everytime Ive seen cracked body kits from curbs, well Id be right up there with Gates himself! |
