can anyone tell what is the biggest wheel that will fit a 98 civic? I've seen alot of 17's, but can i go 18's?

 

yes, with a horrible ride, do what you want, but the larger the rim, the smaller the tire, the crappier the ride, and the faster everything will wear out. just to let you know

 

i wouldnt go any bigger than a 17"....18's you arent gonna have any rubber...

 

I have 17's on minez...and i get some vibration from the wheel when i go over
60 on the freeway.

18's are too big.......either get a body kit for it or don't get 18's cuz it will make
ur car look raised.
If you lower it with 18's the tires will hit.

Go with 17's.

 

you go higher like that, and you're gonna have to lower the thing so it doesn't look like it's on stilts. I like the 15/16" wheel look myself, never been akin to dubs. Uhhmm..errr...yo.

 

18"s are okay with a good drop (wheel tuck) but 17"s are as big as you are probably gonna want to go wtih a daily driver. 16"s are okay both on look and ride quality, and 15"s are mostly for performance. I got 17"s on my car, i need to drop mien to m ake them look good and the ride is rougher but i like them

 

Well, since there's 3 civics within 20 miles of my house with 19's (all 3 sets are chrome... they've gotta weigh like 40 lbs each without the tires), I'm going to say you can probably fit 19's.... I'd say, for the sake of ride quality, go with 17's or smaller.. I have 17's and they havepretty goodride quality

 

hey i got 18's and mine is lowered an 1 1/2..... i dont really have any rubbing at all and i can only put about 1 finger in between the tire and fender...i say go for it.

I'll probably stick with 17's, it is a daily driver and I'd like to keep a little more rubber on my tires.
