Lighter rims are better how thy look is up to you.I have been doing a lot of reading and a smaller rim handles better on corners so stay away from 20s unless you are going for the show car look.

go for it if you like that rim i think 16s look better but its up to you. I would recommend a good directional tire if you don't drive on a lot of snow.Do a Search up top to find more info there is a lot on this site.

I love the si wheel thy are strong and lite and you can some times get a good deal on ebay plus if you jack them up you can find a replacement thy will never be discontinued (maybe in 50 years)

The best i have seen was 250 for a set of 4 no tires one was jacked up.I would say no more then 800 for a set of 4 no tires.You look hard you should see a set on ebay,at meats,or craigslist.com sometimes you strike gold.I cant find any thing im 98% shure thy are 16s i just worked on one but i forgot.

16's look better on the 96-00 civics as they have a bigger wheel well IMO.
