are 18's too big for a CRX?  I found a good deal and was just wondering.

It'll make the rex look like a lego car.
I don't even like 17"s on the CRX, just me though...
I think 15"s are perfect fit for the CRX.

personally i think 16's are the best fit, good look to them and nice cornering from them

anything bigger just makes the car look smaller, but hey to each their own

i think 18's are too big....you'll be riding on a rubber band as a tire, it will make the ride crappy as hell, and although it does look good with the right body styling, they look funny as hell on most crx's

it would be like a midget wearing some size 12 boots....somethin just doesn't seem right!




i always liked my 15's more for comfort, and the 16's for looks...both are good sizes that wont make a huge difference in performance.
