18's on integ

will 18x7.5 rub with eibach sportlines? does anyone have pics of 18's on a integ? i tried looking for some but the biggest i can find is 17's.

The reason is probably because 18's don't look good on integras, atleast from what I've seen. The integra is a sports car, 18s are too big and way too sluggish, especially if they're bling bling. If you have too though, I would recommend prolines, or better yet adjustables.

you mean prokit? thats a eibach spring with less drop, maybe what you mean, or sportline makes light rims but I dont think so.

Just my opinion but the 18 on an integ don't look to good it's like someone that has a fat head and a small body the proportion just doesn't look good. if the tread width is what you're looking for and want to see the rims will look like go to tirerack.com They have a split 5-spoke that I think looks awesome on my 90 integ at least, they are a 17 X 7.5in wide rim. If I remember correctly they are around $150 a rim with is about $50 - $100 least a piece than if you were to get 18's and they look better.

here some pics of my 18 x 7.5. enjoy
im having some problems putting both pics up, so if the pic don't come out just click on the links

after getting them installed, it lightly rub against the plastic fender underneath the rear right tire when making a left turn. several left turns later, the tire just pushed the plastic fender further from making anymore noise. now everything is fine and theres no damage :smile:

oh i forgot, my car was already lowered when i bought it, never did check what kind of springs they are( all i know is that they are blue :screwy: ). i believe it was a 1.5 drop and i installed ingalls camber kit to correct alignment, its hard to tell that its lowered, since the rims brought the car up some. on the bright side, at least i don't have to worry about speed bumps as much. :wink:

link doesn't work.

sorry about that, i took both links out after finding they don't work. lets hope it works now

nope still not working

this is frustrating the hell out of me,i can't seem to put both at the same time. and when i do they disapear when i leave the website.well maybe atleast u can see one of them for now until i find whats going on.

My bad. I meant prokit. But yeah, you can try 18's but goodluck. Maybe nobody has done it right yet. Let us know

I read somewhere that noew af is only letting you upload pics with them, no attatchmements and maybe a size limit, not sure if thats why they arent workling, maybe im wrong about that info even...

Lol no please dont put any bling blings on a teg, any size shape, nothing chrome is for suv's and trucks not for sports cars. and if you plan on making the same turns you used to be able to it wont happen.. integra's have small wheel wells. 17 look like 19's on integras. you will be happy with 17's trust me... it will also be better that 18's for your suspension..

what size tires are you running?

215/35zr18 84w

I had a 2000 accord. Had 18" rims for 1 1/2 year. It F!@#ed up my transmission. Luckily I had a manfacturer warranty on it. It would of cost me 3000 if I didn't. Always get extended Warranty. It pays off everytime.

Hey man it's a prference thing I love havin 18's on my teg I get so many more complements on my car. Plus in the long run it isn't really that big of a deal due to the fact that the tire on the wheel is what really matters. Just make sur u get a good low profile tire on it and they'll look sweet as can be!!!

Hope this helps man!!!!!

you are joking right? those rims did not mess up your tranny, your driving is probabnly what did it, you prabably neutral slam and crap like that, or if you have a manul learn to drive, remember to use that 3rd pedal thats on the far left :loser:

I know people who have accords with 18's and they are still driving like new.

how the hell u get the idea that 18's will ruin your transmission? :screwy: just because u fuc$ed up your tranny (probably from over reving in nuetral then slamming into drive) don't try to blame it on the rims. the only draw backs i have on getting 18's is the fact that they are heavier and it makes my rear a little higher than expected. beside that they are really nice, and when im finally able to take it to the track, i'll just put back on my steelies with performance tires.

just another thing i wanna mention, 18's isn't gonna slow u down that much it depends on what style and brand u get. a 3rd gen integ ls raced me with his stock rims and i still came out on top.

yeah, there are some light 18's but most of them are very heavy, I have sen lots of them weighing over 28 pounds. Ive even seen 25 pound 17's.
also there are some 17's that are like 16-17 pounds.

I have read that adding 1 pound of rotational weight to your car is like adding 9-10 pounds of static weight. so with over 15 pounds more on each rim, you just added over 600 pounds, slowing your car down over 1/2 a second through the 1/4 on average.
