and im sorry to use your car as an example, just wanted to show people that a +45/16 looks weird on a civic

and it actually doesn't look that bad in the pictures you posted.

I went with 205/40/16. They're Yokohama Prada Spec 2's. Nice low profile and real sticky in the corners. I got them thru tirerack.com. Check 'em out.
