Default Civic Sedan Slam it on 16's or 17's???

watup guys im debating whether or not to buy 16's or 17's to slam my fa. i can re-use the tires i have now on my 16's, but i still think they're a little chunky for my taste. if i decide to go 17's then obviously i have to get a wheel/tire combo.

any pics of ppl slammed on 16's vs. 17's???

I thought 17's look great on sedans, but after looking at the CTR, 18's look awesome. But 17's, at the very least.

Just personal opinion.

I don't even know why it's a debate??? 16's are just flat out TOO small (even when lowered/slammed/scrapper) on the FG body
