so I’ve been thinkin’ about gettin’ some aftermarket rims for my 2017 Civic Si, and man, it’s harder than picking a pizza topping. I mean, do I go for something flashy or keep it simple? I remember when I put on new rims for my old car, and it felt like I was driving a whole new ride. But then I realized I spent way too much and ended up with a dent.
my buddy has some VMR rims, and they look super dope. but are they reliable? Also, has anyone tried the Rota wheels? I’ve heard mixed stuff. Seems like it’s either love or hate with those.
and what about weight? I don’t wanna feel like I’m driving a tank. plus, what color should I go with? black, silver, or something wild? like blue with sparkles?
I ve had my 2017 Honda Civic Si for a while now and I swapped the rims for some lightweight ones from Enkei. Honestly it made a huge difference in handling especially on twisty roads in California. Plus they look sweet at car meets we get compliments all the time. Just think about weight if you want performance.
Ive heard good things about Motegi wheels they look slick on Civics. Just keep in mind the weight tho.
I’ve tried Enkeis before and they really helped with handling but sometimes they chip easy. Worth it I think.
I once put some lightweight Varrstoen rims on my 2017 Civic Si in California and it totally transformed the ride. looks sleek and the handling improved so much.
I’ve also heard good things about Enkei. Just make sure to check if they fit your brake setup. Happy modding
Ive been running some XXR 527s on my 2017 Civic Si in California and they look pretty sick. Gave my ride a whole new look and feel.
But man I wish I had gone with something lighter for better handling. It really depends on what you’re after though.
I ve had my 2017 Civic Si for a couple of years now and recently swapped out the rims. I went with some 18-inch Volk TE37s and they totally changed the look of my ride. I’m in Seattle and the roads can get gnarly but they’ve held up really well I’ve been super happy with my choice.
I got my 2017 Civic Si a couple months ago in California. I’ve been eyeing some Rota Grids they look sick and the weight is awesome.
I have heard good things about Konig wheels too if you wanna keep it lighter. Just be careful with offsets I’ve read some bad stories about rubbing issues. Probably need to drop it a bit too. Good luck with the hunt.
I got some aftermarket rims for my Civic Si last summer in California and it completely changed the look. I went with the Kosei K1s super lightweight and they are a blast to drive on.
I’ve heard good things about Rotiforms too but they can get pricey. Just make sure whatever you pick is the right offset or you’ll have some rubbing issues. Can’t wait to see what you choose
I had a 2017 Civic Si last year best car I ever owned. I swapped my stock rims for some Konig Hypergrams and man they looked sick. The weight difference was noticeable too. I live in Michigan and they handled the potholes like champs.
I’ve heard some love the Enkei RPF1s for the classic look too.
I remember when I put some aftermarket rims on my 2018 Civic in Seattle. Made a huge difference in how it handled.
For your 2017 Si I ve heard good things about the Enkei RPF1s super lightweight and look slick. Also take a look at some Fifteen52 wheels they add a nice touch.
the right rims can totally change the vibe of your ride.
just put some Enkei RPF1s on my civic Si last summer in Texas and they made such a difference in handling loved the look too super light but strong I’ve seen some guys go with Rotas they look nice too
I’ve got some Enkei rims on my Civic Si and they look amazing. Light weight really helped with my handling too. Worth it.
