    Civic Sedan Wheel Size/Rims

    Hey guys,

    Does anyone know if it is possible to fit 15 or 17" wheels on a civic sedan, 2000 model?

    At the moment my wheel size is 14" and will need to be changed soon with new tyres.

    Thanks.

    if you don't lower it and put 17" wheels on it does it look good still, like as if it was lowered? I want to get the edge of the wheels close to the body lol.

    all depends on wot you would like to achieve as you could just put in lowered spring or you could up date your suspention with a full kit for ex tein

    oh and most important it comes down to your budget

    A true car enthusiast appreciates the time, effort and money put into ANY sort of car, modified in ANY sort of style, whether they may like it or not.

    AFAIK, If you want to stay 100% legal, then 16" 205/45 is the practical limit.

    You'd have to really have annoyed Mr Officer to get done for 17" though. They're everywhere.

    > Get a low offset rim

    This is when you start pushing legal limits in respect to change in vehicle track.

    Also, I find low profile tyres make our vehicles tramline a fair bit, which is a consideration if ur gf or mum is gonna drive.

    17's do look good, though.
