I have 15" konigs on my car and THEY BEND... I hit a pothole (more like a whole to the center of the earth) and it bent not just the rim but the spokes so I can barely fit a socket in over the lug...

DO NOT GET 17" lightweight wheels unless you intend on driving 10 mi/hr around anyplace that has ANY potholes.

I didn't even hit the pothole that hard... I've hit stuff MUCH harder than that on 2 other sets of wheels that didn't bend them at all.

BE CAREFULL... I'm already in the market for another wheel..

Also the 15's don't look too small for some reason... I hated the last set of 15's I had on it which I used to LOVE on my old car but they looked too small on the civic... these look great..

And I'd recomend looking on tirerack.com for tires... sort by price.. I got pirelli p6000's on clearance for a hair over 20 bucks a piece.
