Wheels for a bone stock suspension on an EJ9

[wrldEJ9]

Hello
Recently bought my first car, a ‘97 Civic with the D14A3 75hp 1.4.

Its currently on steelies 175/60/14 and im looking to get some wheels.
Roads are really bad where i’m at, so no possibility of lowering it AT ALL.

What wheel size, fitment, tyre size, all that, would you recommend in order to get it looking as good as possible?
Want it flush but i understand that flush is achievable with suspension mods and camber so i just wanna get as flush as possible.
I’m open to recommendations cause i don’t really understand wheel fitment yet

There is a thread on here showing many different setups of wheel sizes, styles, etc. Have a look and I am sure you can find it.

It will be very hard to get flush fitment with standard riide height as a wheel of the required diameter would mean you have no turning circle

Get one of those 3D printed wheel fitment tools. Theres a lot that goes into fitment... Not only that, but drivability too. If you install, for example, 17s on your car, it'll drive like s**t.

I think factory 1996-2000 Honda Civic HX wheels look amazing in your scenario. They are 14" and width is 5.5".

Would a 15x7 +35 on 205/50 be okay on stock suspension? Do i go down to 195/50?

That tyre size is fine.
