Default 18" Rims??

Does any one have input on 18" rims on a CRX, hell would they even fit on my car. The car will have coilovers by the time I get them, b/c I don't like my sportlines, just wondering what people thought. Also what do you think that the biggest size on back would fit, i.e. 18x7, 18x8.5 you know. http://www.intercrewautosalon.com

I know a guy who had some on his 88 Civic and he said that they were fine and didnt rub. You need to make sure that you dont get anything that is wider than 7. If you dont have a kit on there the rims look huge. It makes your ride look like a POS. I hope that this helps.

I would recommend a nice 16 inch wheel. If you go any larger than that on a CRX you may encounter some problems.

Don't get them they will slow you down and they won't look good. 18's belong on a supra.

18 are too big. 17x7 is the biggest "recommended" size. but i feel even 17's look to big. I ride on 16's and they look pretty nice.

A local in Bellingham, Wa has 18" momo's arrows on his rex and they look good. Never thought 18" would look good on that little car but they do. However, it is rare that this combo looks asthetically pleasing and no matter what, they are going to slow you down.

I don't think they look to bad I wouldn't buy them, but they don't look bad. That's not my car, I don't think those are his rims and he does have a b16a under the hood. Sorry about the big picture.

O.K guys I think I got the hint on the rims (don't get them). I thouht that my 16's looked big hell those 18's look like mud tires on the car, thanks for the pic on how they look. I think I'll stick with some 15" slips maybe 16's, thanks once again. <U></U> http://www.intercrewautosalon.com

18s are to big i would stay to 15s or 16s for the EF is to small a car for 18s if u do get 18s u might have to roll the fenders and its gonna be a bad ride to cause of no sidewall in the tires
