Just get some 16's and tuck them it'll look better and it wont ruin your gas and performance.

No You dont have to get 17s man it depends on what you want to do show or go. Alot of people dont run 18s because they dont have the power to pull them or cant afford them. If your not into speed that much and are just the occasional speeder get the 18's and you wont look riced out, never forget the wheels and stance make the car
You can make your four door look like this

Hey thanks, I'm not really into the performance as much as I am the look. What do you have on your Car, Coilovers or a spring/shock setup?? Also how is the ride quality??

I sold this car twice that's how sick it looked to people and then a police officer bought it, go figure! But anyway it had Tokico whites and coilovers.
To get a civic that low you have take out the inner lining in front because the tires are in the wheel wells and rub the plastic and you have to watch how you turn the tires will rub if you do not roll the fenders completely
The ride is kinda ruff with any aftermarket shocks but if you get new factory shocks it will not be as bad.
