18s?17s?

I want 18's on my 95 civic? But i dont want rub or to cut anything. Im kinda thinkin about not dropping it or anything cause i like that big tall stance look. So if anyone has good pictures of you 92-95 civic with either 17inch rims with no drop or 18's with or withot a drop i will be so ever greatfull

hey man i'm gonna tell you right now.... them rims will look good, but if it's an every day driver then there's gonna be nothing but problems with them rims. they are gonna be so easy to bend and then you're gonna be replacing rims and replacing blown tires. take mine and many others advise on this one! i have enough problems with my 17s! but if it's just a show car or a weekend driver then go for it! they look tight!

personally I'd get 16s, maybe 17s. But I wouldn't go with 18s for my daily driver....

18s for an underpowered Civic is just too big. Great for just a show car, but 18s is just plain rough for a Civic. I'd stick with 16s that way you have larger wheels but are not sucking your power away.

I agree with CivicSiRacer on the underpowered civic w/ 18's bit....

but if you do choose 18's i dont think you'll have to worry about bending them. but there DAMN heavy. I had 18's on my 99 Civic HB and it was so slow and puts alot of stress on the suspension. If i were you i would stick with 16" or 17".....

forgot to mention tires are over 200.00 each.... and they dont last as long...
