Default 15's or 16's for DD

I either want konig heliums or ebay look alike te37's in bronze on my black em1. I have 15" 94 integra wheels on there now for just winter wheels. I want to get bigger wheels, 16's, but don't know which is a better size for DD. Should I have to worry about weight at all. The te37 look alike's(ssk wheels) are 18lbs a piece which seems heavy imo; and the heliums are expensieve as hell! Oh and my car is lowered on kyb agx's and GC coilovers.

Any suggetsions/help would be greatly appreciated.

Heliums are FAR from expensive. God forbid you from getting any name brand wheels.....lol

15's or 16's, either or will be just fine.

Sure, either size will work on your '99 Civic. For tire size, get 195/55-15 or 205/50-15 for 15", 205/45-16 or 215/45-16 for 16".
