I think so.. that said, last time I saw a poll (or discussion) about wheel size the consensus seemed to favor smaller wheels.

This is my 93 civic sedan, i just finished building the motor and i put the xxr 527 wheels on about 2 months ago. They are 17x8.25 with +25 offset.
had to roll the fenders a bit but not to bad. I have full camber kit. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Have been interested for awhile in these. Same tire spec too. Will have to get them powder coated though.

In my opinion, 17's are too big for honda's, just my opinion though, I think they throw off the whole flow of the car, I prefer 15's, but 16's wouldn't be too bad. I think 15" wheels are perfect on honda's. But once again, that's just me.

I have my stock 14" HX alloys (made my Enkei...11lbs).

I also have 16" XXR 518 (16lbs).

I was looking at another set of 16s but I came across a couple Honda Tuning features of Integras and EK hatches rolling 17s. Plus, when I was looking, both the cheapest price 17" 527s and the tires I wanted wound up being cheaper than the 16" package. I just want something different

i say 14" OE wheels.
15-16" aftermarket wheels. (the tried and true, go-to wheel size)
17" if you can pull of the look.
18"+ is off limits.


but please, no low offset. **** looks to damn stupid.
