Ya i dont like the color combo on that civic either, I was just saying that the gap with 18’s isnt bad.

I cant decide what to go with, 16’s and swap tires over. or 17’s

Well normally I’d automatically say smaller (lighter) wheel and more rubber, but the wheel arch is pretty big on that car. I’d say a nice gunmetal slipstream would set that car off right in a 17"

The RSV is a decent wheel, but the polished lip isn’t going to look good. Find something that is a solid color, it’ll be much cleaner IMO.

subzero’s are my other favorite…  
I was going to get them in gunmetal 14’s for the peon with some fat tires

I think the subzero’s would look good on the civic in steel gray in 16" (stock size)

sucks…

I’d love to find someone on here with 5x114.3 17’s that would be willing to let me swap 2 over to see how they look on the civic. 4doors5gears has RSV’s with the exact size tire i would run on the civic but hasnt replied back about letting me try 2 on, so i guess thats a no.

I don’t think you’ll be happy with those…multi-piece wheels that aren’t actually multi-piece always look cheap, and are tough to clean. Sometime the ‘rivets’ are plastic.

Cant Decide…

alright, I like the subzero’s also.  
now i just gotta convince her to get these along with her new tires before july.  
shes pissed about her current tires, and I told her it’ll save her alot of tread on the new tires if she gets aftermarket wheels and puts cheap all seasons or snow tires on her stockers for winter months… but she doesnt beleive me… lol
