What are you talking about?! 15" rims are madd JDM!!!

Anyway, I think 16" rims are a good size for our lil' Hondas. 17s and 18s can easily work with body kits though.

Heeeyyyyy, comeon now, I'm getting 18s!

Honistly, it all depends on what they're on. A CRX is awesome with 15s, but a Mustang is awesome with 18s. What kind of car are we talking about?

oh no i meant just for little 'vics. With a stang 18's would look killer. But you must agree 18's on Civics or Integras is overkill no?

You could easily fit 19's on a stang.

My friend use to tuck 19's on his '98 Civic coupe. It fit well though because he had the full Bomex kit and hood + Cusco wing. It's all about proportion.

For those of us that actually race our cars, 15's serve the purpose best.

I will say that cosmetically, 15's look best on EG, 16's look best on EK and Tegs, IMHO.

15's are perfect on, say, a CRX or an EF, or anything older. Big wheels on old cars just look dorky, IMO.

for a civic i rather go 15's foor the less rubbing issues i have with 16's i have a set of 16's and i hardly roll on them ( work j-wings ) for rubbing issues i think teg's are fine when it comes to 16's though... but then again tire is killer for 16's

This question has many, "it depends", aspects. I personally like 15's , 16's are fine also..
but 17's and up are just way to big for my taste..
either way
CHEERS

-15-16
-17+ just look to big on the little civics
-tires are much cheaper for 15
-if you get huge rims your stock brakes look pathetic
i say go with the 15's...maybe 16 if you want to blow more money

i think it depends on what car you have...and the actual wheel..
sometimes 15's look bigger than other 15's...
i think on the EG6's....15s are perfect....just IMO
