^ lol at that, but seriously, "fat lips" while full of that killer "baller status" are bad for the car, there are a few reasons you only see them on really expensive cars, and after a set of tires or 2 they take them off all of the parts on the car have to work a little harder to compensate for the stupid *** offset of the wheels. The car was made for one thing and your going WAY beyond that. The price of the wheels is not all to consider when looking at them

You're not following. Giant wheels are anti-performance. Get a Civic.
