Pheet: Nice civic... Not many ppl mod 01-03 civic since parts are limited. Liking the rear apron with the blacked out valances... Clean looking overall, except the tow hooks but personal preference  | I didn't know my wheels were heavy either... I'm not sure whats considered light then.

a car with power like that, a wheel with a a few lbs more isnt that big of an issue. it would probably be an issue on torqueless riced out hondas...
sub 20lbs, 18" and decent in strength is pretty good imo.
i had 16x7 regamaster evos... 11lb-ish wheel. was nicer size over stock, but about same weight..

I'm just hyper sensitive about that stuff, it happened to a few of my friends, I would not like that to happen to me haha.
