Well i always said i thought 17's looked good, ive had these in my garage for about 7 years now, decided to throw them on with the Falken RT615 tires, 205/40/17 wheels are RacingHart C2 17x7 +42, yes they look big and i freaking love it!

Sorry for the iphone picture my sister is borrowing my D60..

Nut, sorry man. i think they look terrible. Its not even the Size...Its the wheel design itself. 17s are hard to pull off but i think something like Regamasters in 17 would work like Woaah
 
Damnnn. They look huuuuge! They don't look too bad just really big. If you look at it from the door to the front end quickly it almost looks like a beemer. Haha.

I know what you mean, SSR type F or CE28n look amazing in 17, i think my car would look better without the tint also... but i had no choice since my rear glass is from an EK9 with factory tint. Also the R comps on my work wheels were wearing very thing :nerv:

Only difference is my car is actually fast, hell even without the turbo it be faster than any of the Z series except maybe the Z8, i don't know about other countries but in USA the Z3 and Z4 are very slow except the hatchback M version, i think its called an M coupe.
 
ppl are pushing the limits on fitment with 15s and 16s on eks so whats next when that gets old? 17s.:win:

No rubbing at all, but i have had my front fenders rolled and the rears cut a long time ago as my 15x7 work emotion's did rub for some reason, perhaps my tire size was why...

that's is correct thay have the m6 v6 in them aswell I think
wouldn't mind one of them :)
 
imo 16's would be perfect. but i have to say you have a clean car there, mate :nice:
 
Sorry but to me it looks ugly on 17's they are too big in my eyes on a civic the highest you should go is 16's:angry:
 
I'm not so keen on the style of the rim, but I love they way they fill the wheelwells:nice:
