Here you go (2001 CiViC; wheels: 19-inch Konig Heliums; tires: Toyo Proxes FZ4s):

Not bad, with an appropriate body kit!

My point is - This same combination, on an (otherwise) stock Gen 5/6 hatch would, no doubt, look like a 'Circus Car'! Done right, 19's look like they would be okay...

BTW, IMHO, these wheels with stock drums in the back, WILL look extremely shitty. Take my word for this. So, if you plan on going this route, make sure you put discs in the back too...

So, to wrap this up, if you buy the 19's, and a body kit, and you put disc's on all 4 corners, everything will be fine, but it ain't gonna be cheap. Your call...

If you just wanna buy some wheels/tires, and forget the rest, go with 17's...
