18 inch rims on a 98 LX??

What's up. I have a 98 LX and I was wondering if 18's would fit. I already have a Eibach spring kit on it. 17's just look too small and I don't plan on racing anybody.

doesnt matter. With an 18 inch rim youre going to have a 35 size tire (Sidewall) that profile is so low that the thing will feel like ur riding on wooden wheels.

I would NOT pu 18s on a civic. Theyre just too big. Its "do-able" but definitely not practical.

i have 18s and its like rolling around on electrical tape. but they came with the car so i cant complain too much. and the ride doesnt suck as much as people say.
