I wouldn't do it... Biggest size that looks relatively decent is 19". Our cars aren't designed for that big of a rim.

~Cheers~

P.S. Punctuation.

if you can find the bolt pattern 4x114.3 on a 20" wheels and your car isn't dropped, its possible. as far as it sticking out or not...most likely it will if its wider than 8"

Yeah, I agree, I've seen I think one set of 19s, and they were too big for my taste, I think 17s/18s look better. If it is your style though, go for it, it's good to have people doing different things. I don't know if they will fit though, it seems like it would be tough

Looks like ti may be possible:

My personal limit is 17"... 16" wouldn't be too bad either. You have to factor in the performance aspect as well. I don't mean racing, I mean fuel mileage. The way Hondas are designed, any increase in tyre width will reduce mileage anywhere from 5 to 10 MPG. One of my m8s had a beater Civic with stock 185s, put on a set of 205/45R16s and saw his mileage drop from 25MPG to 18.

~Cheers~

If you want to keep a decent ride, get 18 inch wheels and some slightly sporty touring tires.
