Those will be huge on your car. And probably stick out some. On a civic I wouldnt go bigger than 17s. But to me those look funny unless you have a body kit.

those are gonna rub SO bad unless your camber is way off..
to get those to fit right you'd have to cut out your wheel wells and flare the fenders on the front, back youd just have to cut them out... thats a big no..

Those are unreasonable to try to fit on a 96 civic. 18s are big on a Civic. 8" wide will also give you problems.

i don't think that's a good idea gettin 19's ......but it's ur ride .....i have 18's first when i got em i got the tires 215/40 and they rubbed really bad but then i changed my tire to 215/35 and i don't have any problems now .....and i can't drop my car unless i bend the fenders strut and good camber kit........so it's up to u goodluck....

Unless your car is strictly for show I wouldnt even consider 19s. Yes, they will rub. Youll probably have to remove your fender wells and roll the lip on the fender, then you may not rub much. You may want to have some pretty stiff suspension too.
I wont even go into the whole to much weight for the little car discussion, unless you want me to.

If the offset is right they would fit but only if they were like 7 or 7.5 inches wide but i don't think you can even fit that big and wide of a tire on an Accord. But 19 will fit if skinny enough
