From the Rules: https://honda-tech.com/forums/wheel-tire-56/9658-forum-rules-faq-read-before-posting-1188922/

6b. No opinion threads for the appearance of wheels (e.g. "Which wheel will look better on my car?", "What color wheels should I get?")

But, in my opinion, 17" wheels are the biggest I would go with on the chassis. 18's look enormous, and there really aren't any proper tires for that big of a wheel. Personally, those wheels look hideous as well. Black with a polished (or chrome) lip, is just so tacky and obnoxious. That and they're knock-off's, but I can understand trying to buy on a budget.

you dont have to be low with JDM to rock 16's LOL. 17's are too big for any civic imho. find a nice set of 16's and lower it moderatley. and you dont need jdm haha.

lol those rims are pretty damn ugly if you ask me.


But 17"s look decent on EM2's. My guess is since they have a bigger wheel well.

Don't go any bigger than a 16" man, unless their absolutely the wheels you want and are well executed.

Remember that the bigger your wheels are the heavier they and the tires for them are going to be.

Not only that, but you're adding that weight to the worst possible location of your car.
