pic request: 96-00 civics with 16"s

if you guys with 96-00 civics could post pics of your car with 16"s on it, that'd be great. trying to get an idea of what it'll look like....

what profile tire would you normally go with on 16"s? i have 35 on my 18", but obviously it wouldn't be that low on 16"s.

will it also make the car look lower to the ground to have such a decrease in wheel diameter?

look at my last pic post in photo section
205/45/16 is the correct size tire
Since youre changing the size of the tire, with the wheel, the goal is the retain the same overall diameter of the 14" stocker

That's my old set-up with the Motegi MR7. Now I'm running Rota Slipstream. 16's of course. I think 205 45 tires are better than 205 40's.

yea, unfortunately, no matter how un-JDM it is of me, i'm going to have to go with the 17s. 16s just look too small for my taste. thanks to those of you that posted though. really clean cars. i'll always be jealous of yours, pdigg.

I like the slipstreams. That car would look awesome with a CF hood with those wheels. Not that it doesn't look good now.
