Yes, but I don't know which offset and sidewall would be the best for the 7th gen. Is your car lowered?

I have 225/40/18 on my 01 EX...my JIC Magic FLT-A2's tuck the tire nicely into the wheel well.

I have 18s now, going to get 19s.

Oh wait, thats on my Cavalier with a kit........Civics with 18s, bleh.

Actually I have 17s on my Civic, going to switch to 16s or 15s, much cooler.

oddly i drive a 7th gen as well, i've got 16's.. but they're MUCH too small.. 17's with 45 series tires look perfect, but if you're gonna go 18 go with 35 series.

1.) One, this is a Honda forum.
2.) It's a public forum.
3.) I didn't say "junk".

umm if your going to do that ...make sure you rims are CHromed out
then go to PEP boys and get those CHrome fender attachments
then Bump the above the law song "got me some HUNDRED spokes"



sorry dood but I think 18's on HOndas dont go together
Its like trying to put Gabs on a Regal....
but then again thats my opinion..which should'nt really mean **** since it isnt my car

By mentioning my Cavalier I was pointing out as its a slightly larger vehicle, plus a kit, larger rims are more appropos, whereas with a Civic 18"s look WAY too large.

Sorry for the slight overreaction.

They'll fit fine and suit the car's giant wheel wells.. also the car is slow as ***** to begin with and is beyond saving without a 6k+ K20 swap so why not do 18's and look good. Just please lower it first to avoid spider monkey syndrome.

Disclosure *this is my personal opinion so i dont want to hear **** bout it*

2001 one civic has big wheel wells. FILL THEM UP!! thats not a car for speed its a car for style, so go 18's or better yet 19's if u have a kit. Other than a jdm style set up car, i cant stand little rims. And if your cars not lowered and you get the right offsets the car shouldnt rub.
