What size rims should i go with for my Civic HB? Are 17's too big for such a small car?

 

if you like it, thats all that matters.

everybody has their own preferences.

 

i like 16's ..... no they arent too big. im running 15"s

 

i had 17s on my 99 coupe and i thought it looked good with them. but, they were heavy and rubbed too much for me. im goin back to 16's. plus, i think 17's look to big on a hatch.

 

im from ct.... roads suck i used to have 17s but they did look kinda big and made my slammed coupe look like a 4x4 but no bigger then 16.... but its up to you bro...

show a pic of the rims your getting

Yes, 16s are big enough for me...

 

i had 17 inch team locos on my hatchback...i thought it looked sick as *$%$!...i say 17's is the max.....

 

wouldnt 17's make your car slower than if you had say 15's or 16's? i don't know just curious.

 

i had 17's on my old hatch , HATED them , now i got 15's and they are better in every way IMHO

 

It will hurt accel a bit, but what you lose there can always be made up in turns. Friend had 17's and 16's, the 16's looked better, and ws better all-round performance wise..

 

i had 17s on my hatch, it looked good when i lowered it, but otherwise i was definatly in 4x4 mode....i went back to my stockers...17s also have a bigger rotational mass, yet taking more power to turn, i would go with the 16s tho
