definitely an improvement over the riced out 17"s put 185/60/14 (OEM spec) on them and it'll look much better

looks like an upgrade to me. Just run a lower profile tire and you'll be good

It seems as though you did it for Honda-tech approval. I could be wrong

At least I'm betting that the ride is more tolerable than the 17's.

You should probably lower it first, then get 16's.

Those rims look horrible..
Strip off the rattle can paint and put some 195/60/14 tires on and it should look MUCH better.

For real. The smaller and uglier the wheel, the better. I would have just lowered it down on the 17s. I'd paint that chrome door trim black too, but that's just me. I'm pretty sure those rims were factory options on camrys or something

Smaller tires and lower the crap out of it and things will be improved. Thumbs up from me.

I like the 17s better. I'm getting pretty sick of everyone trying to make their Civics look like VWs with these "Mesh" wheels....
