Question 15" GreenLights on my Civic

I just ordered Konig Green Lights for my 99 EX. They only come in 15", though. I was originally gonna put 16s on, but the GBC deal was too nice to pass up. Has anyone seen these on a Civic, or any 15" aftermarket on a Civic for that matter? I'm afraid they're gonna look cheap on my car. I always see Dodge Neons around my town with 14" rims (granted, they're American Racing most of the time...) and it looks terrible and cheap. I can sell the Green Lights to my sister for her hatch if they don't work out, I'm just curious if anybody has any images/opinions before I pay to put tires on. Thanks.

$385 shipped, they had the Heliums for the same price, but there was a 3-4 week wait.

I ordered the Heliums (not from the GBC, but a local America's Tire Co.) a few weeks ago, I'm wiating to get the Kumho Ecsta 711 tires I ordered with them in stock, the tires were $28 a tire at the time I ordered them, but sold out so fast, it's taking them a while to get them back instock, as last week NO store in the west coast region had them in stock. My rims arrived to the store about 4 days after I ordered them, and have been sitting in their back area for me ever since. Well turns out this weekend, some moron that works there SOLD my rims to another customer (they were special ordered for me) so they put in another order for them, for me, and they will be in by the 15th of this month. So I gotta wait even longer, at least the tires will be in by then, though. Once I get them on, I'll take pics of them and post them on here. I DID see the rims though when they got them in, and got to hold them, and let me say those babies are LIGHT to say the least. Almost as light as a set of SW388's You Greelights will be a few pounds more.

Oh, and BTW, for all my waiting troubles and them selling my rims and having to re-order them, they dropped my sales bill by $60 for all the troubles. My rims were $99 a piece, but I'm now getting out with the Heliums installed with tires, out the door for a few over $600.

Wow that's a good deal from a retail storefront. Do they have a website? I'd be interested to see if they had a chain near here. The only thing within about 200 miles of me is a Pep Boys and Advance Auto

Yup, they sure do.

go to www.tires.com and then click on the "Discount Tire Direct" logo/icon, that's where you can order them online, from, and they offer free shipping on them too!
