Civic alloys - suggestions!

untouchable90 · 28th October 2007, 18:19

Hey people my first post so first up hello! okay iv got a 2003 civic just the standard imagine and iv just passed my test and i want to do some basic mods to my car but i still want to keep them basic enough so when i come to sell i have no problems! So the first thing was some decent alloys.... naturally i thought 17s would do good thinking of the old honda CTR but im unsure will they fit my civic? i think the PCD is different? So can someone recommend some nice but good value 17s with tyres preferably. i found some tell me what you think:

Find 17" Alloy Wheel Honda Civic New Mini Vauxhall Astra on eBay within, Wheel Rims, Car Wheels, Tyres Trims, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 04-Nov-07 14:14:21 GMT)

Also can i change the front grill? to the mesh grill on the SE's.... do you think its a subtle enough change not to effect people who might buy the car?

Hi Untouchable,

This forum is for the 2006+ 8th Gen Civic, so although we are a friendly bunch and some of us have had other Civics aswell, I am afraid you may not find answers to all your questions here.

On an 06+ Civic you can change to the CTR mesh grill on an SE.
Easy to change back if you keep the original parts.

Hi. As you've just passed your test I assume your insurance is quite pricey.

Bear in mind any mod's, even alloy wheels will bump it up.
