The sidewall size will affect comfort levels and handling performance.

bigger tyre profiles make for a comfier ride so 15's would be more comfortable. but 16's would look better :p

it depends on wat u want,but i got 15's on mine they look great but don't get a too big profile then it looks like a 4wd,nothin over 50R15 i reckon

15s all the way...and its a win win situation for everything...cheaper tyres...better ride comfort...and personally...looks heaps better than 16s and 17s

depends on teh rim design imo

i used to be huge 15" jdmyo or nothing but now, i think a set of 16s can look good now too

...Well i think it does not really matter if ya Putting on a 15" or 16 " to be jdm Well Its also the weight of the rim, If ya using a 15" With a weight of 16" Its also uselss for the Weight ratio.. Well I'm Using 16" Cos I can't use 15" to clear my brakes And also I'm running on a b20 So It spuns Like hell.. Thinking of 17 instead... lolz Fyi i live in tokyo and The civics There uses 16" more then 15"


15 inch gronk, if you go 16 inch, its not jdm...

i'd go 16" i got 17's i want to go smaller, cheaper tyres, better handling benefits too from a lighter wheel and less torque required to get them moving.
