screw the too small comments, they look sweet. I wouldnt sacrifice the ride quality and go any bigger. 17" is big enough.

thanks for the comments. i agree that they look smaller, but it is because of the lip. in person, they fit the wheel well nicely. 18s are too big, the ride quality of these is significantly different than my stock 5 spokes, or the sawblades i had on before. I dont think they look like 15s, but thats alright. The mille miglia a evo 5s in 17s look bigger than these, but they also dont have a lip. Oh well, i like them, just wanted to see what the org thought. thanks again

They look good, 18s would look better IMO, combined w/a 45 series tire the ride quality would be the same. For your next tires get 235/45, 225s are a little narrow when you can get away w/245s. not bashing you, but the above poster
17s are for civics, unless you're autocrossing/dragging!

Looks good, and should be good for performance. I'm in the minor well club too, only 17z. Tempted to get 18z until I look in my wallet. Some people swear by 18z, some by 17z. You paid the money, get your use of them.

btw, i paid 500 for the rims and tires. tires have 85% tread on the front, and like 65 on the rear. I really couldnt be picky at that price, considering the tires woulda been 500 alone. Minus the lip, and you'll have some decent sized rims, but i still like them anyways. I could have saved up for evo5's, but everyone has those. i like these because they are different

They look really nice, but they might look better if they were an inch or two bigger IMO...
