I got a price on just wheels and they will be roughly $1300 delivered. Is it more worth it to get dunlop tyres added for $2000 or just the wheels and get tyres fitted myself here in melb.
Thanks again to anyone that can help.

I have 18's and the ride quality hasn't changed. Go for a 225 wide tyre. The only i notice is that they grip a s**tload, but comfort wise you don't lose much at all and besides they look better.

mine are 18 x 7.5 with maybe room for another 1" (this is based on a sport model civic...not sure if it differs in VTI and VTI-l) so you could prob go to 8-8.5" wide and still be ok, so the 19x8 should be alright.

what about 18x9.. would that be pushing it?

anyone have idea what bodikit is that? where to get it if you do know

19 Inch

looks like just a custom fd2r kit. no idea where to get it from though..

anyone know if 18x9 will fit our FDs?

nice FD2R there.. and nice wheels too =)

It's not a FD2R. But it does have the partial type r bodykit, but with mugen grill?! Looks good none the less.

<whinge>Have been looking for the perfect rims for quite some time now, and then I found them. Got all excited ready to place the order and turns out they aren't available in 5x114.3 :( </whinge>

What colour is ur fd?

black... funny thing is up until a couple of days ao i never liked black rims at all... now I'm just lost. Silver rims are too common now... leaving white (looking at the bc p1 sf rims in white with red lip) and gold. Still not sure I want black.
