Now Jim....don't go getting all wet in the pants and thinking you brits are gonna take over the forum or anything
 - lolWelcome jamy.  I personally think the best looking wheels on a 4th gen are the 15" 99-00 Si wheels..but that is just me

Not exactly a 4th gen civic but will give you a rough idea as to the type of wheel you like. There is no point asking us what we like as it may be different to what you like. Anyway her is the link and welcome to the forum..... http://www.tyremen.com/Honda/hociv2.html

Lookout, Jamy!
Melt, the rim-whore, will want to come over to your house, put your rims on his car, and post pictures. You've been warned. Personally, I like stock. I think it's cool to stick with designs that Honda engineers did to go with their products. I'm a big fan of finding fancy SI rims or anything that came on a much more expensive Honda. Since I've never seen any 17s like that at the junkyard, I bid you good luck. It's gotta float your boat, no one else's. Flunky PS-Welcome!

I was wondering, how much slower will you be when you have 17"s on a 4th Gen VTEC ( B16A1 - EE9 ) ??
I mean from 0-60 Mph (0-100Kmh) It standard comes with 15"s and according to the manual you will get there in about 7.3 secs But if you install some 17"s what will your time be then??

I don't understand why people do things like intake, exhaust, and then swap on big heavy rims and basically go back to stock HP from what they gained with the bolt ons. Get some nice LIGHT 15 or 16" rims.

Ah yes, as everyone pointed out, "nicest" is relative. It's up to you to decide what you want?
What are your goals for the car? Is it going to look cool, or is it going to go fast? Or, is it going to be a bit of both? Then decide how you want to spend your money. Personally, I like my rims alot, I think they look cool, but they are heavy as hell, and I'd rather have something else that won't slow my car down quite as much...
