Should help tighten up steering and give great handling.
Says the person who critised other 4guk members driving antics....even though you did not witness the car, event or its location at that time...mmmmm!

Well, If you think 18's will give you better handling....good luck, you'll be the first person in the whole Honda universe that will have pulled that off...this I do believe accounts for all Civic's .....18's will slow you down and it just won't handle well....you'll also get spinal compression as you'll have absolutely no suspension travel and because of the low profiles, you'll feel EVERY bump. :roll: IMO, only the S2K can wear 18's

Civics must have 14"-16" for good handling, and the Eg/EM1 can get away with 17" at a push.....you'll be dissapointed with the fact, as said, Saxo boys will be running rings around you if you get 18's.

Smaller the wheels - Quicker Accelration, shorted top end
Bigger the wheels - slower the accelration, higher the top end

Bigger the wheels, the more power you will need to push them, Smaller the wheels, the less power needed to push them

Common sense if you think about it!

No no no, don't put giant wheels on a Civic. Too big, too heavy, too noisy, too expensive....

Stick with 14's or 15's max - any more is just bling and won't improve anything.

Just my opinion, you understand...
