Default 00 Civic Coupe, Wheel size?

Should I get 16s or 15s for my coupe. I plan to lower it about 2.5 inches or so all around. I dont want to totally slam it but I want it to have a nice stance.

Doesn't realy matter, just buy what wheel size you want and can afford to put rubber on.

i concur. 15 or 16 is the magic honda number. you cant go wrong either way. anything bigger just looks goofy.

how does it work with lowering tho? i can afford 16s or 15s. I want to have a nice stance and not worry about rubbing.

The rubbing comes from width. In order to get a larger rim size, you need to 'plus size' to keep the overall diameter the same. Don't go over a 205 with the appropriate lowere sidewall for the rim size and you'll be fine.
