18inch wheels on civic 4 doors 97, fit or not?
does anyone know if 18 inch wheels with 205/35 tires fit on a civic 4 doors 97... I have adjustable suspention so I could bring it up a little (cause I have 16inch at the moment)... but do they fit in there? and am I going to want to kill myself after trying them for a while?
Im asking all this because im getting a nice deal on some 18inch's wheels and might consider buying them... and also im asking here because it's the only chan that I know that people will actually READ my post and answer me, anyways, thanks!

Well i seen a guy do it b4 but it all depends on where u live (in my opinion). If the road is kinda ruff then ur going to have a problem. If u want speed more than looks then 18's wouldn't be a good idea.

I know people here like the sleeper and all stuff... but jesus I figured that a ricer is someone putting ---- for looks and nothing in the hood... I have a ZC supercharged engine (which is not the ultimated engine I know that thank you, but still doesn't give it's place)
im not asking opinion if it looks good or not, just want to know if it actually fits there and is possible to live with, thanks

They will fit with the right offset, different lca's for the rear and rolling the lip in the rear. Depending on how low, the true width of tires,(some are differnt but the same size) camber, Ever drove a civic with 18's? 18's=SLOW.
dont do it fight the ricer earge in your 4 door pile of rice ----. Make a sleaper you'll have more fun.

why even waste your money, spend it on other things, yes, they can fit, but even if you're not a ricer 18's just look way too big on a civic, 17's at the most with a 40 series tire, but even those look too big. do what you want, yes, you can make em fit with a rubberband tire.
