I agree, 18's would have been more appropriate but I guess there is a reason for everything.

i disagree, 18s would slow the car down significantly, and if you kept the stock tire o.d. you'd have a very short sidewall. too short for most of us.

it should have an option of lightweight 17s imho.

I think a 17 or 18 option would have been great, I'm sure there is a true performance reason why they stopped at 16 because 17 and up is the Vogue right now. Of course Honda seems to like denying things to the US market, so maybe they just said screw the US buyers.
