civic STOCK ex (assuming that's what you have) are slow. 17s aint gonna hurt it much. You could just go with 15s. slap a greddy turbo kit.

if you own a civic and haven't realized your slow yet, Im sorry.
You will have to come to the fact a stock car is slow.

and 17s dont help

Turbo or nitrous is the fastest way to be quick...plus heavy 17s dont help!
