205/40-17 vs 225/40-18 so the website says for the package deal

those 18's wont fit without rubbing issues correct?

they may stick out further and bump your fender...it could get messy. Just get it profesionally rolled and you'll be peaches


my vote on the 18's as well I would get a two piece with a thick lip though ....oh, and KEEP IT SILVER!


*edit* RED LIP SILVER SPOKES!! :eek3: that would look fawkin sweet

I already had my fenders rolled back when i got the tantrums.
where should i look for rims? similar in style to the C2's? and is 225/40-18 the right size for a civic?
