I doubt it'll match

Is that your ep3? If so, keep the rsx-s wheels, they look mint. Plus, an oem look is way better than Chrome on black

Those wheels are 100% hideous.

Get 05-06 type s wheels if you want clean cheap 17s that look bomb on the ep.

Thats not my civic.
mine has the stock 15" wheels.
I personally like black rims.

If I could afford it i'd buy these:

You don't think those would look nice with my red ep3?

Simple answer is no. I remember someone tried to sell a black ep3 with those kind of wheels in 18''. We all just bashed on it lol.

The first ones you posted look like crap, the colors would look fine but the design looks terrible...I have a friend who put them on her car and they make me sad...the second ones you posted look good...

Keep playing nice everyone

You are lucky enough to have a red ep3. Please don't ruin it.

I'd suggest simple wheels with clean color. All black, white, silver, etc.

Rpfs1, desmond regamasters (rota slipstream if you're tight on $$$) te37 (rota grid) etc.


Please don't ruin that car :mcry:

Here, let's make the decision for you.

You say you have 15" rims, correct?

You say you have a Milano Red Ep3, correct?

You say that pic of a Milano Red Ep3 is not yours, correct?

You must have the 2002 Canadian only Milano Red ep3 then, correct? (they only had Milano red in the 2002 year for Canada)

The rims in that pic you are buying are 5 lug, correct?

All this leads to a hypothesis that your are most likely not going to be able to use them. Why? If you're a 2002-2003 Ep3, you are 4 lug, not 5 lug.

There, decision made! You will not buy them!

lol at everyone... i personally dont like the first wheel you posted as well. The second choice is much better.
Honestly just be patient. I know how you feel about the stock 15" wheels and would love to get rid of them asap, but trust me when i say this... there is no better feeling then getting the wheels you really want. If you wait a little longer and just keep saving you will be rewarded in the end and be happy every single time you look at your car. Otherwise you will settle with "cheaper" wheels and always say to yourself "well i have these and they are better then stock but i still wish i had xxxx wheels".

LMAO. I agree on everybody's advice. The way youre thinking is ricey like the first rim you chose. Try to get some 17s wit 215/45 or 16s wit 215/50 if youre thinkin about a dropping it. No bigger cuz 18 would look ricey too in my option unless the rim/car is super clean.
Well good luck and hope our advice helped you out.

Look in my members ride link in my sig. I had black rims and now bronze. I think black, gold, bronze, or white rims would look the best on a Milano ep3.

And I would go for a 16" rim.
