right size wheels for the integra
I was wondering what size rims you would all suggest for the integra. I am looking for a good comprimise between looks and performance. Do larger size wheels have a negative effect on handling and or speed? Is it worth the extra cash to buy higher quality rims and tires? I was probly thinking in the 16"-18" range. thanks everyone.

Larger/heavy wheels do effect acceleration, braking, suspension. I say no larger than 17's. Its worth the extra money for lightweight quality rims & nice tires. www.tirerack.com www.whalentire.com

Re: right size wheels for the integra
I would go even as far as 16s the largest on a Civic. 17" tires throw off the speedo and odometer and is like .5" larger than stock which means it will change your gearing.

Re: right size wheels for the integra
17" will have a bumpy ride. 15" or 16" are probably just right.
