IIRC the EX-T comes with 17s therefore yes, you would have to get new tires. It states "may need front fender modifications" because its a wider wheel so you'd have to roll your fenders to avoid any rubbing should you go with a beefy tire.i'm really interested in these wheels for my EX-T... dumb question but will these wheels work with our stock tires or would i have to get new tires?? and if you click on the link it says on the bottom by the notes section that it needs front fender modifications as it's an "agressive fitment"?? any info will help greatly, thanks

thanks for the info, i was thinking tires could fit an inch bigger no problem like strech it lol.. obviously if you have 15s and want to put a 19in rim on there thats crazy but I didn't realize one inch makes a difference.. anyway you mentioned the fender roll.. so if i got thin tires could it work without rolling fender? I want to leave the car as stock as possibleIIRC the EX-T comes with 17s therefore yes, you would have to get new tires.

What kind of rims are they? Great looking car!18x8 JNC 26 Matte Black, 225/45/18
It might work with thinner tires but that would ultimately affect ride quality. Rolling your fenders is a mod that nobody else will see unless you put your fingers behind the finder and feel for the fender lining. I used to run 17x9s with 215/40/17 tires on my old Si. Rolling the fenders reduced rubbing but in the end, I had to adjust camber to completely eliminate it.thanks for the info, i was thinking tires could fit an inch bigger no problem like strech it lol.. obviously if you have 15s and want to put a 19in rim on there thats crazy but I didn't realize one inch makes a difference.. anyway you mentioned the fender roll.. so if i got thin tires could it work without rolling fender?

yeah! great i'll have to order the rims then and have a tire shop help me out with the fender project since i have no idea how i would roll them correctly. damn i wish i could just buy those 18s with new tires and swap them right out lol. everything has to be complicatedIt might work with thinner tires but that would ultimately affect ride quality.

What size tire and rim?These are 17s, in graphite, I like the darker wheels on the white.
Beautiful. Kinda off topic, but I really need to get those clear sidemarkers. Makes the car look so much better.Here are my new Motegi MR126's (18x8) with a set of Michelin Pilot Super Sports in size 235/40/18 on my Crystal Black Pearl '16 Civic Touring. I also had my red Honda/Honda logo caliper covers put on and added Honda logo valve stem caps. Loving them so far. Please excuse my crap photography skills and the reflections.
