What are you talking about?! 15" rims are madd JDM!!!

Anyway, I think 16" rims are a good size for our lil' Hondas. 17s and 18s can easily work with body kits though.

Heeeyyyyy, comeon now, I'm getting 18s!

Honistly, it all depends on what they're on. A CRX is awesome with 15s, but a Mustang is awesome with 18s. What kind of car are we talking about?

oh no i meant just for little 'vics. With a stang 18's would look killer. But you must agree 18's on Civics or Integras is overkill no?

My friend use to tuck 19's on his '98 Civic coupe. It fit well though because he had the full Bomex kit and hood + Cusco wing. It's all about proportion.

For those of us that actually race our cars, 15's serve the purpose best.

I will say that cosmetically, 15's look best on EG, 16's look best on EK and Tegs, IMHO.

15's are perfect on, say, a CRX or an EF, or anything older. Big wheels on old cars just look dorky, IMO.

for a civic i rather go 15's foor the less rubbing issues i have with 16's i have a set of 16's and i hardly roll on them ( work j-wings ) for rubbing issues i think teg's are fine when it comes to 16's though... but then again tire is killer for 16's

This question has many, "it depends", aspects. I personally like 15's , 16's are fine also..
but 17's and up are just way to big for my taste..
either way
CHEERS

-15-16
-17+ just look to big on the little civics
-tires are much cheaper for 15
-if you get huge rims your stock brakes look pathetic
i say go with the 15's...maybe 16 if you want to blow more money

i think it depends on what car you have...and the actual wheel..
sometimes 15's look bigger than other 15's...
i think on the EG6's....15s are perfect....just IMO
