Take a look at the new AVID 1 AV-26's. I ordered a set in bronze but they have multiple colors.

Never heard of Avid 1 before, so I checked out their site. Nice wheels.

Really like the AV-12 black rims with the gold rivets, but the biggest they make those in is 16" :/

I went for "Titanium" grey. Fast FC04 18x08

I like these a lot, there seems to be a few companies making this style.
I'd probably go bronze however just to give the care some contrast...we have a blue car, not a white/silver/black car...we should use color to our advantage

Actually, with the incents of chrome on the front bumper and the windows trims, the fake vents and the rest of the bumper/window sills, the car is blue/silver/black. I figured I just keep on with those three colors instead of adding a fourth one.

This wheel model is available in bronze too and it looks really good on a red civic.

It's just my taste though, the duality blue/whiteish and red/goldish.

Yeah, if I had the chrome grill, I'd agree with you

All these wheels look great! I'm really likeing the look of gray/graphite/gunmetal.

Just out of curiosity, why are so many of you choosing to go with 18" wheels?

Is it a weight thing? Is it the cost savings of re-using the OEM tires?

Me personally, I could never consider buying an aftermarket wheel and keeping it the oem size. I would have to go with at least a 19" wheel. Possibly even a 20".

Just curious why nearly everyone chooses not to upgrade their wheel size.

I find it strange too. I went for "lightweight" 19".

didn't someone say 19" was an off-size and tires were more expensive than 20s?
anyone find this to be true and jump to 20" instead?

Weight , tire prices, and being able to run over a curb on track without getting a bent wheel. I am looking at a set of RPF1 , I can have re71r for around $200 each. Any good tire for stock CTR wheel is over $300.

Honda Civic 10th gen Aegean Blue - Best Wheel Color? 30D64DEE-765E-421C-B34F-0CEBC8DD6586
i really don’t know that much of rims fitments still learning but i did some research and i’m just wondering if these would fit my 2018 honda civic ex-t coupe. Just want to make sure it would fit so i dont have to go through the hassle of returning them.
