Recommend tire rack also. Bought 5 sets of wheels from them so far. Every car we've had has had a separate set of wheels for winter tires.

interesting, I thought along the left side after you fill in say car type/year, you can then click on searchables like Diameter, color/finish, width, offset etc. I imagine for ease of buyer, certain "oem" sizes are defaulted to reduce the risk of someone buying a product that doesn't fit.

I cross reference the wheel I like from different websites and will go with whichever has the cheapest price. I got my current wheels from AutoAnything.com, but before I bought them, I looked at how the wheels looked on cars with similar color and suspension on FitmentIndustries. It's usually best to shop around and do some searches, not only on this forum, but other forums to see any issues people have had with the particular brand you're looking at.

I'm reviving this thread because I want to know if there are any other sites besides Tire Rack that can show you what the wheel would look like with your car.

(I know fitmentindustries can show it, but its based off customers who bought those wheels so its more of a factor of luck where you hope that someone with a civic bought them to show what its like)

Discount Tire Direct has that feature as well.

Discount Tires also offer free balance and mounting as well, I've heard.
This is true. I've done this twice with them, and they do a great job. They also run promotions around holidays that can save a good chunk of money. The next one will probably be for Memorial Day.
