16's with 205/45 tires seems to work better for me... look better IMO

17's are rediculously oversized for a civic... the tire ends up having all but no sidewall which does NOTHING benificial... the tires have to be heavier for thicker sidewalls the wheel will obviously weigh more and they will most likely bend on the first decent pothole you hit..
Also they look silly IMO.

I've had 17's for over three years with 205/40 series tires and have never had a problem with them and they ride fine. If you buy cheap rims they will bend.
