I would go with 15" if your going for speed...If your going for looks I would go with 16" (If your going with both get a lightweight 16")

Would I be asking for any serious issues if I picked up a set of 16x7 with a 40mm offset for my 98 civic? I can't really see that a 2mm offset difference is really gonna rub unless I've got the wheel at full stuff and turned hard over to one side. Any other opinions on the idea?
