umm... there is nothing wrong with 17s on a civc. I have them on my 95 coupe. they fit fine, and the weight difference between comparable 16s is minimal. why put 16s when they look weak. I'm all about performance, but im also about not having my car look like shit. adding 10 or less more pounds isn't a big deal for a street car.

he must have the wrong offset because on my 97 Civic when i had 17s on it, they never rubbed and i was tuckin damn near rim with my coilovers cranked all the way down

for every pound you take off for the wheels, it "frees up" 10 lbs of force from the engine. Dropping 10 lbs from the wheels would be like shaving 100 lbs from the car. Read the article about weight (part 2 has info about this)
