What is the size of the original Civic wheel rims?
1 Answers
The original wheel rim size of the Civic is 16 inches or 17 inches, and it can be changed to 18 or 19-inch rims. Wheel rim load capacity: Small wheel rims are usually made of steel to save costs, but larger wheel rims are made of aluminum alloy, especially those manufactured through forging processes. The load capacity of these rims is five times that of ordinary steel rims. Large wheel rims reduce ride comfort: Large-sized wheel rims affect ride comfort. Generally, the outer diameter of the tire is a fixed value, meaning the larger the rim, the thinner the tire's thickness. This results in poorer isolation of road noise, leading to increased interior noise and affecting the vehicle's quietness. Large wheel rims improve the vehicle's cornering performance: After modifying the wheel rims, the contact area increases, which enhances the vehicle's stability during cornering.
